Anne McKennon, Flute ~ Solo Request List
Below is a list of melodies available for solo background music, parties, silent auctions, weddings and other events.  This list includes a variety of melodies from Early music to 20th century popular music including classical and Broadway.  For formal occasions, classical background music sets the mood.  For more casual settings, a blend of styles may be ideal and a printed song list is available for requests.  An all request hour is a popular choice at parties and senior centers.  Love songs are a favorite for weddings and Valentine's Day celebrations.  Celtic music is a great choice near St. Patrick's Day. 

Weddings
A flute is an elegant touch for a wedding whether it is for the entire ceremony or simply featured in a favorite song.  
I am available as a soloist or with a small ensemble.
