In their own words…

The Music for Life series stands alone as an incredible resource for all professional musicians—whether performing or teaching. Music for Life deserves a standing ovation!

—Gerard Schwarz, Conductor Seattle Symphony

[Bonnie's] students are extremely well prepared and handle themselves with confidence and dignity in presenting their various solos and ensembles. Their response to Ms. Blanchard’s teaching was a clear picture of her well-defined teaching methods.

—The late Dr. Ralph Guenther, Professor emeritus Texas Christian University, Fort Worth, Texas

Bonnie Blanchard has a rare gift as a profound flute teacher and author. The teaching methods outlined in her books have influenced many award-winning students who have gone on to launch professional careers, either as performers or educators.

—Diane Hsu

I was so impressed with the quality of Bonnie Blanchard’s high school flute quartet that I invited them to perform a concerto with the Seattle Symphony. Their technique, tone, intonation and musicality were extraordinary. Bonnie is an inspirational and motivating master teacher.

—Gerard Schwarz, Conductor Seattle Symphony

Every year I hear hundreds of flutists from around the country, and Bonnie Blanchard’s students are a cut above. Her unique teaching style produces musicians with excellent playing skills who demonstrate a joy for music. Bonnie Blanchard delivers!
