Upon the premiere of Robert Cantrick s music theater piece Three Mimes, Bernard Holland (The New York Times) remarked, Ms. Lancaster s flute spit and barked beyond its usual repertory a virtuoso versatility was both demanded and achieved. Lancaster is a member of Essential Music and the Downtown and Glass Farm Ensembles, a guest of Ne(x)tworks, Counter)induction, and Talujon, and a recurring performer at Spoleto Festival USA and Santa Fe New Music.
