Amy Porter first leapt to international attention by winning the Kobe International Flute Competition in Japan. She has also won the Paris/Ville d’Avray International Flute Competition, including the Alphonse Leduc Prize for outstanding musicianship; the National Flute Association Young Artist Competition, and the Artists International, Ima Hogg, and Flute Talk competitions. A graduate of Juilliard, where she studied with Samuel Baron and Jeanne Baxtresser, she received fellowships to Tanglewood and the Mozarteum Summer Academy in Salzburg, where her teachers were Alain Marion and Peter-Lukas Graf. Ms. Porter served as associate principal flute of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra for eight years before becoming professor of flute at the University of Michigan. She is the founder and past president of the Southeast Michigan Flute Association. She has published several instructional DVDs, The ABC’s of Flute Playing for the Absolute Beginner (Carl Fischer), Telemann 12 Fantasias for Solo flute without bass: A Study Guide with Amy Porter, and Karg-Elert 30 Caprices: A Study Guide with Amy Porter (both Theodore Presser). Visit her website, www.amyporter.com.
Ms. Porter will also present a masterclass entitled "The Anatomy of Sound" earlier the same day at the New York Flute Fair.
