Mira Shifrin needs a new flute, so she’s raising money for the instrument by performing a fundraising concert.

Buying a professional-model flute is comparable to buying a new luxury car, Shifrin, who plays at Kerrytown Concert House Sunday afternoon, said. Due to the intricacies of custom-made instruments, she needs $30,000 for a Burkart flute.

The KCH program features all unaccompanied works showcasing the breadth and beauty of the flute. This is one of a tour of fundraising recitals being presented throughout the state.

Originally from Ann Arbor and now from Kalamazoo, Shifrin first fell in love with classical music when she was three years old while watching “Fantasia.” Once she picked up the flute, her first teacher was her father.

Thus began a lifelong passion for the instrument, performing, teaching - and now, at appears, fundraising.

Mira Shifrin performs at Kerrytown Concert House, 415 N. Fourth Ave., at 2 p.m. Sunday, Aug.18. Admission is $25-$5. Details at www.kerrytownconcerthouse.com or 734-769-2999.
