BINARY flute duo
Lina Andonovska and Janet McKay
Janet and Lina’s worlds collided at the 2013 Australian Flute Festival where their passion for interpreting recently penned compositions was fulfilled through the NOW flute ensemble. In 2014, the BINARY duo was debuted at Brisbane’s Judith Wright Centre through the generous support of a Pozbile campaign. Recently, the pair took their project to Chicago’s Elastic Arts space. Janet and Lina are committed to performing music in an innovative and immersive way; this is evident through their solo careers that span from teaching individually and in a workshop setting, the numerous community music projects that both artists take part in, to the collectives and ensembles that they are both members of outside the BINARY project. The two have plans to commission more works for this combination in the future, as well as take this project on the road and win fans over with the spectrum of sounds that can be conjured up by two flutes.
