Spring 2025 Cover: A flute rests atop sheet music.

The Spring 2025 Issue

In this issue:

In the lead-up to the 2025 NFA Convention in Atlanta, we have numerous interviews with some of the composers whose work we’ll be presenting, including Lowell Liebermann, whose Flute Concerto No. 2 will have its second live performance with us, and Stefán Ragnar Höskuldsson, who will be performing the work. We also highlight some of our commissioned composers including Tilmann Dehnhard, Nicole Chamberlain, Angélica Negrónand, and inti figgis-vizueta.

This issue also features lots of other articles to get you excited about Atlanta, including a note from our Program Chairs, tips on what to do while you’re there from our Local Arrangement Chairs, and features on our three 2025 awardees: Lillian Burkart, Sheryl Cohen, and Zart Dombourian-Eby.

We have a piece by Dave Weiss on what it’s like to work as a musician on Broadway, and continue our pieces in conjunction with the Library of Congress by taking a look at Claude Laurent’s glass flutes. There’s a collection of more memories of our beloved Wally Kujala. We have helpful insight from some of the NFA’s committees, as well as news from members, reviews, and more.

About The Flutist Quarterly

The Flutist Quarterly, the flagship member publication of the National Flute Association, was founded more than four decades ago, dating back almost as far as the organization itself. Recognized throughout the international flute community for its quality and visual appeal, The Flutist Quarterly provides information and articles about the performance, study, history, manufacture, and enjoyment of flutes, flutists, and flute music. The magazine features articles written by leading flute performers, scholars, and teachers and news about developments and accomplishments in the NFA membership and flute community at large. Article topics range from breaking discoveries and new insights in research and methodologies to in-depth analyses of new works. Profiles of the world’s leading flutists and pedagogues, significant activities in communities from Boston to China and all points in-between, performance health insights, and developments in flute repair and manufacture are among topics explored in the magazine’s feature articles. Regular departments include reports on flute club activities, Annual NFA Convention news and updates, obituaries, international news, news from and about the NFA, announcements of new products, and reviews of new CDs, music, and books pertaining to flute.
