Shere Fraser

Thank you for stopping by my artist profile. I'm a Canadian born flutist and composer now living in Washington State. I hope you enjoy my expressive cross-cultural style where I try to blend my classical training with global influences to craft deeply moving instrumental works. Nature fuels my creativity and I carry my flutes on walks with my dog in the Pacific Northwest where birds, frogs and other living creatures join in with the musical chorus. I have a vigorous background in neoclassical and new age music. I taught myself to play the flute at age 13 and later studied classical music. I took my music to the skies in my career as a flight attendant and entertained passengers both in flight and in airports. I was known as WestJet's 'flute attendant' and was affectionately named, WindShere. I retired after 13 1/2 years and am now enjoying composing music with artists around the world. Through my music, I'm grateful to have won a number of awards over the years, most recently, three 2025 New Age Notes Music Radio Awards(Best Solo Flute Album, Best Relaxation Song, Best Solo Flute Song). I'm a self taught player of many wind instruments including Dizi, Xiao, Hulusi, Quena, Irish Whistle & flute, Native American flute, Duduk, Shakuhachi and Bansuri flute. I also release meditative and relaxing music with my world flutes on my other artist profile, On Ancient Grounds, https://open.spotify.com/artist/2ffnciHwk34Wa0twfe42ga?si=parJmICcSCCGFgaEJKO_bA Thank you!
