Interview by Mendes Biondo
Joe Yeatman, Native flutes maker, in this picture looks like a Zen master, one of those who contemplates their own swords for hours to understand the secrets of life. His smile is pure. Joe told me he has fun while creating his flutes, and I can believe him. You can see that fun running in every wood grain of these wonderful music instruments.

Here you can find a selection of experimental works by Lily Arnell along with the Italian translation. Enjoy!
