About Me
Hi I'm Katie, and I am 16 (going to be 17 on Friday). I have played the flute since I was in 4th grade, and have competed in solo contests, 4,5, and 6th grade I received silver medals, on account I was nervous and completely bombed the performance. In 7th and 8th I went to a school that did not offer a solo contest. In 9th and 10th grade I received a 2+ rating, which meant I was very close to a superior rating, in 11th grade I finally received my superior rating a 1. And received a medal. I am going into my senior year of high school and have been apart of the band, the marching band and Tri-M which is the music honor society.

In February, if I am admitted to the college I am applying to in September, I will be auditioning for a music scholarship with the school, so my private teacher and I have been preparing for that audition.

I have been playing the piccolo for about 5 years now, I started back in 7th grade when my friend in band got one also. We killed everyone's ear drums in the first year because we would always play together. In 8th grade our teacher made us switch off pieces.

My Flute is a Armstrong 80BT
My other flute (that I replaced) is a Gemienhardt 3
My piccolo is a Yamaha, I'm not sure what model, because my parents bought me it as a surprise, and the model has been scratched off because of wear and tear.
I also have an Armstrong 104 that my Uncle found and gave to me. I am in the process of refurbishing it, since it is a very old flute.
