Perform and present at the 44th Annual National Flute Association Convention. The convention takes place August 11-14, 2016 at the Town and Country Resort and Convention Center in San Diego, California. My proposals were selected from more than 500 proposals from flutists from all over the world. The convention features many of the most influential national and international flutists. I envision this Quick Start Grant will allow me to continue to raise the profile of these works by Amancio Alcorta and my own profile as a performer and flutist nationally and internationally. I have had the opportunity to present the program La Flauta of Buenos Aires, throughout the United States and Latin America. These works by were published first in Paris with limited performance. My performance at the National Flute Association Annual Convention marks a significant acknowledgment of my work in this area of research. I have applied a number of times to perform and present at this annual convention. It is considered one of the most important conventions and this is my first acceptance to perform. It will provide a significant experience and raise my profile worldwide giving these works the performance and attention they deserve. The growing success of these works will be measurable in the ongoing purchase of my editions of these works and the CD I have recorded dedicated to these works.
