Susan Schuster is a published composer and arranger of music for the Native American flute and is an active member of the World Flute Society. The songs of the Shaker communities of New York and Massachusetts inspired her latest book Music of the Shakers, and she is currently working on an original suite for Native American flute and a collaborative effort with Grammy Award winner Mary Youngblood is planned for next year. Susan is excited to be bringing her flute workshop to the Saratoga area.
