Kim Shippey with Alyssa Michalsky ~ Friday, March 18, 2005

Kim Shippey - Flute, Alyssa Michalsky - Harp 

This is very beautiful flute music. Kim Shippey has a focused, fluid sound much like that of James Galway. Teamed with Alyssa Michalsky on harp, the music lifts the spirit and feeds the soul. Elegant and soothing, this duo has a unique touch that will give you a night to remember. Kim Shippey has certainly got it!
