We were so thrilled to have Jocelyn Crosby share her musical gifts with us during a recent Sunday afternoon concert at our church! Jocelyn is a stunningly talented flautist, and her musicianship is unmatched. The knowledge she shared about each of the selected pieces made the concert even more powerful and moving. We will certainly be inviting her back for a concert in the future!"
