Dolce Suono Ensemble

Dolce Suono Ensemble, founded by world-renowned flutist and Yamaha Performing Artist Mimi Stillman, has captivated audiences since its inception in 2005. Dolce Suono Ensemble has been widely acclaimed by the media for its innovative and dynamic programming of repertoire spanning Baroque to new music (44 world premieres in 11 seasons), and was Chamber Music America's featured American Ensemble.

The ensemble's Música en tus Manos (Music in Your Hands) initiative with the Latino community of Philadelphia won the Knight Arts Challenge. Mimi Stillman, the ensemble’s Artistic Director, was at age 12 the youngest wind player ever admitted to the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. She later completed advanced degrees in history at the University of Pennsylvania.

"Mimi Stillman, who founded the group, is not only a consummate and charismatic performer, but also a scholar. Her programs tend to activate ear, heart, and brain"--The New York Times
