Enchanting Flute Music

Lisa Thornton specializes in playing solo flute music for weddings and other special ceremonies.

Weddings

      The enchanting sound of the flute is particuarly well suited to the chapel or church environment and is a nice alternative to a church organ.  The flute is elegant and graceful, but at the same time the sound can fill an entire space, especially with the great acoustics of most churches.  The flute is also ideal for intimate outdoor ceremonies, where the natural setting is enhanced by the flute's ethereal sound.
Whatever the setting, the flute will add a magical and festive air while playing your wedding prelude, processional, and recessional.  Also perfect for candle lighting ceremonies or after a reading, where the solo flute will provide a moment of beauty and reflection.

     Lisa can draw from an extensive repertoire of classic wedding favorites, as well as classical and celtic songs for flute. Requests for favorite songs are welcomed, and as the flute is a melodic instrument, most requests should be able to be performed.
