I would acquire a music stand, hopefully, a Bluetooth speaker. All music and scores will be prepared by myself.
We need to know any directions that will help us find the venue.

The biggest gig I have ever done was a solo flute performance at a Global Business Conference when I was at the university. It was a nice kick-off of my freelance musician career.
I feel meaning to play at all sorts of events, such as private events, weddings, ceremonies, funerals and so on.
My previous gigging experiences are playing with an orchestra, and giving solo performances at birthday parties, proposal parties and weddings. I started gigging at the university and the performances started developing from there. I feel grateful to share my music performances to bring people around, celebrate people's events, and offer mental support to audiences. Moreover, the gigs offer me refreshing experiences to understand people with different cultural backgrounds.
My favourite artists are the Cantopop singers from Hong Kong, and also world-class flautist. My favourite composers are Tchaikovsky, Schumann, Brahms and Rachmaninoff.
I am devoted to becoming a well-rounded orchestral musician, and I believe music connects people and souls. It is a meaningful life career to share my profession with the general public, which is also a big motivation for me to improve and enhance my performance quality. Thank you for reading until here and thank you for your time and consideration :)
2 X 30 mins sets
2x 45 mins sets

I am happy to play outside but would prefer places with shade, to avoid high temperatures of electronic products (such as iPad).
We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 3 songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.
Previous customers would describe us as a soothing, enjoyable performance that loves to get the audience to feel relaxed in the events.
