Lesley Joosten
PRIVATE FLUTE AND ENSEMBLE
Lesley has over 30 years experience playing C flute, piccolo, and alto flute. She has taught not only private and group lessons, but has been involved in directing youth bands, flute choirs and workshops, adjudicating, co-chairing music festivals, and developing a music scholarship program.
