“I was in school band from fifth through eighth grade, and never had lessons. In high school, I joined orchestra right away. Then, sophomore year, Lisa and I started working together. I learned so much about how to play the flute and techniques that broadened my scope of what flute music could be. I was able to learn so much about the history of flute playing, and was able to experience it in a whole new way. I have improved immensely!”

“When one is privileged to experience both the musician and the person that is Lisa Gilbert, you have altered and elevated your own path. Her musical output, with sincerity of the music and dedication to her students is always that which you take home to digest as she enhances your own life and that of her students.”
