Pamela Sklar is a published composer of chamber music who writes for unusual combinations of instruments. While a majority of her music co-features flute, Ms Sklar's works also include flute(s) with other instruments such as contrabassoon, electric bass and Egyptian harp.

2019 premieres of her original works include Mandolin on the Moon, a quartet for mandolin and (other) strings, written for members of the Metropolitan Opera orchestra and presented at the Hudson River Museum Planetarium celebrating the 50th anniversary of the first manned lunar landing.

Other recent performances of Pamela's music have been performed and/or premiered in Madrid, Spain (The Chains of Love, and The Ocean We Want); and Havana, Cuba (Two Journeys).

A 2020 Arts Initiative Grant Winner from ArtsWestchester for her project Words Into Music, Pamela's original composition is scored for three players performing on a total of eight instruments including bass flute, Native American flute, English horn and alto saxophone.

Pamela Sklar's composing career evolved naturally as an extension of her performing career. Many years of listening, playing professionally with outstanding artists and improvising co-created her original voice. Her first work- Flutes From the Other Side -was published in 2008.
