Finzer Mahoney Duo Former Rochester native and flutist, Sherry Finzer and her guitarist Darin Mahoney, believe anyone can transform their life. On their first album together, appropriately titled Transformation, this flute and acoustic guitar duo creates music to encourage listeners “to walk through the next door and change your life for the better.” Both musicians have had personal transformations. On the musical level, Finzer went from being a classical flutist winning competitions to recording internationally acclaimed new age music albums. Mahoney came from the direction of country, rock and folk music before turning his talent to soft instrumental acoustic guitar music and his own solo album. Finzer says, “I was drawn to new age music because it helps people with healing and I have learned how much people can be affected in a positive way by music.” Mahoney overcame a life-threatening illness in the Nineties and discovered “this type of music helps your mind and body. It can put you into a state where your body can heal.” The duo’s first album release, titled Transformation, won Best Album of 2013 from One World Music. “This album has made a change for me” - Steve Sheppard -One World Music “Music that touches something deep in the soul - this music should be heard and felt” - Ascentor “Sherry Finzer and Darin Mahoney - Hottest New Age Flute and Acoustic Guitar Duo” – Lillian Peters - GoArticles “Take A Listen To The Outstanding Acoustic-Guitar and Flute Duo Finzer & Mahoney.
