WOW. This man right here. Truly, truly, truly the absolute best. The way you have picked me up when I have fallen and been the most amazing human being I’ve ever met. You have been my greatest advisor, my most bestest friend, my eyes when I can’t see, and my number one fan. You are an amazing, dream partner. I’m so thankful for the life we have built together and that you continue to stand by me, through the thick and the thin. Happy 15th anniversary to the most incredible man. Also… you’re hot 🔥 😘.

Last week I had a surprise and amazing FaceTime call with the incomparable George Lewis. He shared with me details on his latest writings, we talked about hanging out at Tanglewood this summer, and he mentioned this sweet children’s book “Where Are All the Black Female Composers?” by @n8holder. Obviously, I ordered it right away and was so excited to see my sistahs @jmontgomerymusic, @valeriecolemanmusic, @pamelazed and our matriarch #tanialeon included, amongst so many other legends and friends. I actually ordered two copies; one for me and one for my daughter. It’s a really great addition to the library and I highly recommend it to readers of all ages! Also, I’m blushing because my name is included in there too. ☺️ Thankful for all of the brotherhood, sisterhood and love. ❤️ ✊🏾•

Spent the last few days processing what occurred T

Spent the last few days processing what occurred Thursday night with the @cincysymphony. I truly, truly believe in the power of the universe, the law of attraction… all of it. I’m reminded how @njoachim came into my life at the exact moment she was supposed to and how @flutronix was born the day we met, 15 or so years ago. I’m reminded how we met @greenjaki while working on a different project, and how she captivated us with her radiance and brilliance. I think about how @meiann.chen came into the project because the original conductor had a sudden conflict - and she was the PERFECT person to do this with, and the universe knew it. I have no doubt in my mind that the four of us came together because we were brought together. The @artsclubchicago and @natebach were also a part of that energy, and made it all possible. I thank you all deeply and sincerely, for making dreams come true and this project, Black Being, a reality. Looking forward to the next time. 😉 ❤️.(📸 by Tyler Secor) #flute #composer #classicallyblack

Speaking of Ohio orchestras…. 😉 Tomorrow @flutronix performs “Black Being” with the @cincysymphony and I am feeling so blessed and thrilled. We had the honor of creating music to the brilliant, powerful words of @greenjaki. This piece is a journey that tells the story of and celebrates black women. I’m just soo proud and I almost cried during rehearsal today, feeling overwhelmed with gratitude and by the spirits of our ancestors in the room. What a blessing. 🙏🏾 ❤️ (📸 by @erinpatriceobrien)

The cat’s out of the bag!! Super excited that I’ll be @cleveorch’s new Daniel R. Lewis Composer Fellow, and for the next 3 seasons!! Really looking forward to getting to know Cleveland, work with this PHENOMENAL orchestra, and create some new music!! Feeling blessed, grateful and PUMPED! See you soon, Cleveland! ❤️ 🎶 (Keep scrolling pics to see my excitement 😃) Pic by @rafaelrios__

A tribe is all the things. This past week, my people came through for me in priceless ways. Proof-reading, advice giving, ear-lending, and lots of cheering. At the end of day, life is a wonderful thing when you can be yourself and do what you love, but it’s the people in it that make life truly beautiful. Thank you to all my friends, family, and colleagues for always lifting me up. I really can’t do any of this without you. Y’all really make a girl feel loved and unstoppable. I want nothing more than to do the same for you.❤️ ❤️

Tonight: Grateful to perform my solo #flute piece

Tonight: Grateful to perform my solo #flute piece “Homeland” as part of @thejasonmoran and @aliciahallmoran’s “Two Wings: The Music of Black America in Migration” at @cal_performances. Sitting in my dressing room and thinking about my late grandparents, who migrated from rural Mississippi to Chicago, fleeing from the Jim Crow South. I’m having one of those moments where it’s sinking in that that was ONLY 2 generations ago. Thinking of their flight, their love, and their bravery tonight. This one is definitely for them.❤️

Happy Valentine’s Day to my ❤️. I think this

This week, and for the foreseeable future, I’m really in the thick of it, all while the kids are back to (temporary 🤞🏾 ) remote learning and Omicron seems to keep things spinning. Feeling truly challenged, and I know I’m not alone. In an effort to stay focused, positive and motivated, I like to remind myself of successes and the things/people I love. Today’s cure is this pic of me, in the zone playing a drum machine during @flutronix’s premiere of “Black Being” at @artsclubchicago. Performing with my musical love child with @njoachim, in a city I love with all my heart, doing work that means everything to me. ❤️ I can go on with my day now. What keeps you #motivated during crazy times? 📸 by Sarah Elizabeth Larson.

LONG POST. Mental health trigger warning❗️Toda

LONG POST. Mental health trigger warning❗️Today marks a really special anniversary for me. One year ago today, I decided to make some major lifestyle changes in an effort to get a handle on my #depression. I had been prescribed a few different things for a few years and nothing was really working. I often found myself crippled with anxiety, serious imposter syndrome, and deeply trapped in my own head. I would beat myself up about it too, because it felt so completely irrational. An endless cycle that was starting to really spin out of control. So, as cliche as it may sound, a year ago today I cut out decades old habits (that I thought were helpful, but actually made things worse) and started running. I started practicing self-compassion and self-forgiveness. I started saying affirmations out loud and declaring to the universe what I was going to achieve. I made time to acknowledge the many things I’m grateful for. Within a week, I had more energy and optimism. Within a month, my anxiety had all but disappeared. I kid you not. I couldn’t believe how much better I felt, it was like I was a new and improved version of myself. I’m sharing this not only because I’m proud of myself today, but also because I hope I can maybe inspire someone else out there who might be going through what I went through. And to invite you to reach out if you need an ear or a friend. I also acknowledge that what has worked for me, may not work for everyone, so this isn’t a “do what I did” post. I’m definitely not cured and have to work on this everyday, but I’ve found that support and community makes it much more possible, and being open, honest, and approachable about these things is a part of us all getting the help we need. #mentalhealth 📸 by @rafaelrios__

Joyful! We’re approaching the end of 2021, and while we’ve all been going THROUGH it, there’s still so much to be grateful for and find joy in. I’m thankful for a year that saw new opportunities, introduced new relationships, and nurtured old ones. I learned a lot about my strengths, but also my weaknesses, and I’m thankful to be on the continuous journey of self-improvement. As always, feeling blessed to have a life in music which has given me so much, it’s hard to believe. And of course, my beautiful family and chosen family who love and support me unconditionally. Happy holidays to everyone. Wishing you all an abundance of joy! 📸 by @rafaelrios__. 💄 by @jessicasmalls. 👗 by @malinlandaeusvintage and @jeffhova. #flutist #composer #musician

Immensely proud of @flutronix’s latest work, “

Immensely proud of @flutronix’s latest work, “Black Being,” a collaborative project with North Carolina poet laureate, @greenjaki. Thrilled that the Chicago Tribune considered it one of the top 10 classical, jazz, and opera moments that defined 2021 and wrote, “It’s the most stunning live performance I saw this year, no hemming nor hawing necessary.” So grateful to the @artsclubchicago for supporting this project, and to the @cincysymphony for presenting the orchestral version this spring! I’m so excited for us to continue sharing this work with the world. 📸’s from the premiere by Sarah Elizabeth Larson. ❤️

I started the #flute when I was 10, in the 5th grade. I had my own drive to play and never needed to be pushed to practice. I was drawn to the instrument in such a way, I felt like I *needed* to play it. In retrospect, I realize I 100% came to the flute as a means to escape, calm my anxiety, pique my curiosity and kind of, disappear. It was therapeutic and I fell in love. I think there’s something to be said about this type of breathing... Anyway, now as a working professional, I find there is little time for that type of playing, as I’m almost always learning new music, or creating new music with enormous intent. It’s been so long since I’ve picked it up to just “play” or haven’t had some specific goal in mind. This week I needed to channel 10 year-old Allison and give myself permission to let go a little bit, and just play. Even if it’s only for a little bit. Can anyone relate? ❤️

I’m thinking about my ride-or-dies. Thankful for

I’m thinking about my ride-or-dies. Thankful for all the real ones. Y’all know who you are. The ones who have been consistent. The ones who I may not see often, but when we do see each other, we pick up where we left off. The ones who check-in. The ones who have entered my life only recently, but it feels like you’ve been around forever. I hope you’re all having a wonderful day, no matter what you’re celebrating, or not celebrating, and know that I appreciate you, your love, support, sincerity, and beautiful selves. I am so fortunate to have y’all in my life and I can’t wait to hug you the next time I see you. 🤗 😘
