JENNIFER BRIAN

Flauto Traverso

 

Jennifer initially focussed on Boehm flute and piccolo but transitioned to traverso in 2007. She studied under Melissa Farrow and completed her BMus Honours at the University of NSW in 2008. She then completed her Masters of Cultural Material Conservation at the University of Melbourne in 2010, writing her thesis on the Conservation of simple system flutes in museum collections.  During this time she studied with Greg Dikmans and played traverso with the Melbourne Conservatorium Baroque Orchestra, performing Bach Cantatas, chamber music and Charpentier’s Les Arts Florissants.  Jennifer also performs on other simple system flutes particularly traditional Irish and Australian music and is thrilled to join the Canberra Bach Ensemble for this concert.
