The Best of 2023
As 2023 comes to a close, we want to thank you for being part of our best year yet. This year brought many exciting changes to Flute Center. First, our name: no longer only “of New York,” we are now simply “Flute Center.” Which leads us to our biggest development - this fall we officially launched Flute Center Chicago! Opening our second location brought tremendous growth to our team, which swelled to 33 team members, including 9 new repair technicians (side note: if you haven’t sent your flute in lately, it’s time!)
We have had the pleasure of helping more flutists than ever find their perfect instruments, accessories, and sheet music. We hosted inspiring performances and masterclasses, wrote articles about Flute Center products as well as our own lives, travelled to flute shows all over the country, helped resell hundreds of pre-owned instruments, recorded new Flute unscripted episodes, repaired a whole lot of flutes, added new products to our shelves, had fun on Tiktok (maybe too much fun??), and did our best to connect with the flute community in every way we know how. Thank you for being with us through it all.
Read on for some of your favorite accessories, instruments, scores, events, and articles, and stay tuned for more in 2024!
Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
