Jennifer Berman began studying the flute at the age of 7 in South Florida, after attending an outdoor band concert and loving the sound of the instrument. She attended the North Carolina School of the Arts where she received both her High School diploma and Bachelor of Music degree as a student of Philip Dunigan. She then studied at the Manhattan School of Music with Ransom Wilson for her Master of Music degree.
After freelancing briefly in New York, she became a member of the Civic Orchestra of Chicago, where she was co-principal for 2 years. She moved to Connecticut in 1994, where she continues to perform with a variety of orchestras and ensembles including the New Britain Symphony. This coming fall will be Jennifer’s 25th season with the NBSO!
Jennifer also enjoys chamber music, and is the flutist for the Harmonia V Woodwind Quintet. In her spare time, she is an avid reader and movie-goer, and blogs at the reel chick blog.
