FluteSong4 is a professional flute quartet that provides music for weddings, Christmas and holiday parties, showers, engagement parties, birthday celebrations, graduations, retirement community concerts, memorial services, and other special events. Our large repertoire is varied and can be customized to fit any occasion. Our members are Carina Celesia Moore, Pat Walton, Irene Warschauer, and Ann DiPasquale. Each of us began our decades-long love of music and the flute in grade school. We met in the Camellia City Flute Choir, which has been performing for many years at a variety of venues including five appearances at the National Flute Association Conventions (Anaheim, Salt Lake City, San Diego, Phoenix, Las Vegas), the California State Capitol Rotunda, the Crocker Art Museum, and the Music at Noon concert series at the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Sacramento. All of us are active members of the Camellia City Flute Choir and the Sacramento Flute Club.
