Background

I have performed at a number of venues, festivals and concerts around British Columbia and Washington State including the following:

My main instrument is a keyless Casey Burns African blackwood flute in D. I have a six key Hammy Hamilton D flute made of African blackwood on order.  I highly recommend both of these makers.

Together with a small collective of musicians, including fiddle, banjo, guitar and accordion, I am available for private functions, dances, weddings, concerts and festivals.  Please phone (604) 683-3080 for bookings, or email me at corcom@interchange.ubc.ca

I don't teach professionally but if you come down to the Irish Heather on a Tuesday, I'll be happy to show you what I know.


Links and friends

For more information about Irish flute playing, visit Brad Hurley's page, which is as comprehensive as it gets.  There you will find a list of makers, interviews with Irish flute players and a set of links to other Irish flute resources on the Internet.

Another great site, with resources on how to play the Irish flute is maintained by Rob Greenway.

Also, while you're here, why not visit the homepage of my friends Mad Pudding, Vancouver's original Celtic funkmeisters.

She's the queen of the contra dance in Vancouver and an occasional session drop in -- Marian Rose!
