Daily Joy
Floating Bach Flute Sonata

17-year-old flutist Aarushi Kumar performs Bach’s Sonata in G Minor for Flute and Piano with host and pianist Peter Dugan! When she’s not playing principal flute with the Curb Youth Symphony, Aarushi can be found studying neuroscience and perfecting solo performances like this one. Float your way to a calm state of mind as you listen to this sonata!

This performance is part of From the Top’s spring festival: Where Music Lives.
