- Q5253125 abstract "Delandria Mills (born Houston, Texas), is an American jazz, gospel, and classical flutist, composer, educator, and author.A classically trained musician, Mills commenced her formal music instruction in piano at age four. She recounts: "I tried cello, guitar, and clarinet, before finally settling on the flute as my instrument of choice. At first glance, I did not want to play it (the flute) at all. I remember looking at the picture as my teacher placed it in front of me, and frowning and saying, ‘I do not want to play this!’ But once I carried it home and opened the case, I even liked the smell which was that of the band room at school. Allat once, the flute grew on me. I thought it was beautiful and still do. I feel very fortunate to have become skillful at playing this beautiful instrument.” She attended the High School for Performing and Visual Arts in Houston, a nationally recognized incubator for musical talent. Prominent alumni include jazz artists Helen Sung, Robert Glasper, Kendrick Scott, Jason Moran, and pop music sensation, Beyoncé Knowles.Mills was awarded a Bachelor of Arts in Music from Prairie View A&M University, and both a Master of Music in Flute Performance and a Graduate Performance Diploma from the Peabody Conservatory of Music.

Her teachers include the legendary flutist Hubert Laws and Marina Piccinini of Peabody Conservatory.The music of Charlie Parker and of John Coltrane lured her to jazz, and Mills cites Hubert Laws, Freddie Hubbard, and Kim Burrell, as additional musical influences.In 2003, Mills was awarded the top prize in National Flute Association's Jazz Flute Competition which led to her being selected as one of six international young women to win the International Association of Jazz Educators' Sisters in Jazz Collegiate Competition in 2005.
