"Carol Wincenc is without a doubt, one of the most extraordinary musicians of our day," said Lisa Whatcott, president of the Utah Flute Association. "She has a unique ability to reach out to her audience in an elegant, yet powerful manner. I do not hesitate to say that she has already become a legend to flute players and musicians around the world."
