Colleen McElroy, second flute in the Spokane Symphony, came into the SPR performance space with nine students from her flute studio to perform a selection of holiday tunes.
McElroy's students range from beginners in elementary school to high-school flute players. Two groups of flute students played a total of eight pieces that included "God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen," "Away in a Manger," "Jingle Bells" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas."
This was the second of four mini-recitals to be featured this week on Spokane Public Radio as a celebration of the holiday season as well as local musical talent.
