Ten Questions for KIM SCOTT

1. How old were you when you first started playing flute?
I began playing flute in the 5th grade at the age of 10 years old. Prior to that, I started on piano and quickly advanced on the instrument before learning violin. When I picked up the flute, however, I was totally captivated by the shiny, petite instrument! I was intrigued so much that I only wanted to focus on learning it so I put the other instruments on the back burner for a while. My mother is a classically trained pianist and a retired music educator and my father played saxophone. They even had a pretty famous band back in the 70s called The Dynamic Soul Machine, which was signed to the famous Stax Records. So, music has always been important to me and my family, and it was constantly present in my home when I was growing up.
