About

NPR Music's Tiny Desk concert series has adapted to the current times with Tiny Desk (home) concerts, featuring performances from artists around the globe. These intimate sets, originally hosted at NPR headquarters, now take place in various makeshift settings due to the pandemic.

One recent Tiny Desk (home) concert featured flutist Carol Wincenc, a renowned American musician known for her solo and chamber music performances and advocacy for new flute music. Wincenc, based in New York City and part of the faculty at the Juilliard School and Stony Brook University, showcased her remarkable talent in a recent performance.

During the concert, Wincenc delivered a captivating performance, highlighting her expertise in playing the flute and her passion for innovative musical expression. Her choice of repertoire and engaging presence made the concert a memorable experience for viewers, showcasing the versatility and beauty of the flute in various musical styles.

Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, artists like Wincenc have found creative ways to share their music and connect with audiences through platforms like the Tiny Desk series. The shift to home concerts has allowed for a more personal and unique insight into the artists' work, bringing a new dimension to the Tiny Desk experience.
