Allegro maestoso
I'm an amateur flutist educated in the Western European tradition, having played for more than 30 years. Playing is fine, but listening is bliss.

I would rather buy music on my own terms than subscribe to a service, so I'm more of a collector than a streamer.

Music Preferences
Funk, jazz, blues, electronic, art music (known to most people as "classical" music), older rock and pop, classic soul and R&B.

To me, song is distinct from music. Song is a smaller part of the bigger picture of music. I enjoy the occasional song, but tend to make other genres my first choices.
