Susan Craig Winsberg began her musical studies in her hometown of Chicago at
the age of five on the piano. She began playing flute at the age of ten. She
studied flute at Northwestern University with Walfrid Kujala of the Chicago
Symphony and San Jose State University with Isabelle Chapuis of the Paris
Conservatory, and she received her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Flute

the U.S., Europe and Canada.

​

In the 1990s Susan began composing and delving into other genres of music,
including Celtic, New Age, Jazz, and Mariachi. She formed the Celtic band
Blackwaterside in 1995, and she has played with an all-female Mariachi band
