Flutist’s-USA’s Sherry Finzer & Aussie Based Peter Sheridan Team Up

"Flutist’s-USA’s Sherry Finzer & Aussie Based Peter Sheridan Team Up"

New Age composer and flutist Sherry Finzer (US), and classical low flute specialist Peter Sheridan (AU) join forces to bring a new and imaginative collaboration called TRAVELER. The album came about after Sherry and Peter performed together several times in a Phoenix based flute choir known as DEF Project (Desert Echoes Flute Project) conducted by Christina Steffen.

Sherry is based in Phoenix, AZ, US, and Peter in Melbourne, Victoria, AU. Sherry has released many previous award winning New Age recordings on her label, Heart Dance Recordings, and Peter many classical recordings receiving accolades on low flutes on the Move Music label, commissioning over 70 compositions for low flutes.

They both brought new and creative ideas to their project, taking listeners on a journey through time, both terrestrial and non-terrestrial. The last track, Joy, leaves listeners with a very memorable and upbeat tune to celebrate the joy of life. Both artists are active members of the USA National Flute Association.

Peter and Sherry plan on touring and performing music from Traveler both in the US and Australia in the summer and fall of 2018.
