Flautists and String Arrangers and players look here

Hobknob

Hello,

I'm currently seeking a flute player for a musical project I am about to embark upon. I play the Hammer Dulcimer and have roughly ten compositions that I am looking to turn into an album over the coming year. It's possible that you have seen or heard me as I busk about Dublin quite a lot. I'm also looking to put together an ensemble featuring percussion for live performance if you are interested.

Primarily, I am looking for a Flute player; I love the instrument and am very confident its timbre would serve as the main melodic accompaniment to the music that I have written. Realistically, it would no more than an hour a week or more if you really like and enjoy the project and want to get involved in a more hands on capacity.

Secondarily, I would like to meet a person or persons who would be willing to arrange strings. Experience is not a necessity or even desired in this regard.

On both counts, I am willing to allow the music to be a canvas with minimal direction.

I will be financing the project and although I can't guarantee any sort of financial remuneration, I will always cover expenses and share any profits along the way. It will ultimately boil down to whether or not you like the music . I have no Mp3's - a few bits up on youtube recorded over a year ago so they will not really serve as an indication of where I am at, at this present moment.

If you feel that you could potentially contribute in someway or would like to get involved, please contact me, I have an open mind and will gladly listen to any idea.

Any questions please ask.

Thanks,
David
