🎶Artie Webb Toca La Flauta 🎶❤️🪈🫡
I'm so excited to share something truly special with you all. On June 20, 2025, "Mr. Flute, the documentary" will be available for free on YouTube! This film is a loving portrait of my dear friend, the incomparable Art Webb – a name that resonates deeply in the world of music.
Art is more than just a flutist; he's a master of his craft, having delved into classical, jazz, and Latin jazz with unparalleled skill. Roy Conners even hailed him as the "best flute player in the world." Despite an astounding discography of over 100 albums and collaborations with giants like Ray Barretto, Stanley Clarke, Tito Puente, and Celia Cruz, Art's journey has been one of immense talent without the accompanying mainstream fame or fortune.
"Mr. Flute" takes you on a fascinating ride, following Art as he travels for a gig, relying on public transportation and revealing the dedication it takes. As we journey with him, you'll get to know the man behind the music – his wisdom, his humor, and his unwavering spirit. Most movingly, you'll witness the incredible bond with his best friend, who stands by him through thick and thin, especially as Art faces health challenges.
This is a story of passion, perseverance, and the profound impact of friendship. Prepare to be touched and inspired. Mark your calendars for June 20th!
