Laura Stincer: “Vortex of Glory”
Laura Stincer was born in Havana Cuba and she discovered the flute at age ten. From the moment she was able to get sounds out of it, the instrument became an extension of her body. “The sound that comes from my flute is as if it were my second set of vocal cords. Like we all find the vibrations of our vocal cords warm and pleasant, I get to say that twice as much,” Stincer explained. While in Cuba, she studied with Alberto Corrales. After her studies were complete, she moved to Miami, Florida for a little while but eventually wound up in Los Angeles, California. Laura’s recordings display both an impressive technical wizardry and a soul-rousing passion. On her latest track, “Vortex of Glory,” Stincer’s flute goes toe-to-toe with a scorching electric guitar and easily holds its own during the spirited conversation.
