Music can be found everywhere\u2014in concert halls, parks, living rooms, and kitchens. It is in that last place that flutist Jeannette Landr\u00e9 has warm childhood memories. “As a child, I learned to sing in two-part harmony with my grandmother while doing the dishes.” And every year, just before Easter, when the St. Matthew Passion was being performed across the country, Jeannette would once again fall under the spell of Bach’s masterpiece. She would huddle close to her father\u2019s old radio with her recorder to play along with the live broadcast.<\/p>\n

While most musicians choose the Conservatory after high school, Landr\u00e9 opted to study Music Therapy. “I wanted to help children with psychological problems. You can achieve so much with music; it is one of the strongest means of communication.”<\/p>\n

For years, Landr\u00e9 worked in a children’s home, but during a sabbatical, the Conservatory called to her once more. “My connection with music became inevitable, and before I knew it, I found myself in the gig circuit.” Now, Jeanette has been a familiar face with the Nederlands Blazers Ensemble for many years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
