Overview

Join us at the National Flute Workshop this summer.

This year, two tiers are available: Tier I: for collegiate

through professionals; and Tier II: for high school

flute students, ages 13-18. Faculty and counselors are

flutists available to help students of all levels. Private

lessons, master classes, small ensembles, and other

activities will improve the overall knowledge and

abilities as a musician. Participants will experience

college life first-hand for five days with other students

who share similar interests.

Classes will begin on Monday, July 10 at 9am. While

every effort is made to provide each student with a

compactly designed schedule, students may have

breaks in their schedule throughout the day. These

breaks will provide time for extra practice and rest.

Please bring a pencil, your flute, any music you would

like to work on with our faculty, a metronome, and a

piccolo, if you have one. We request that students do

not leave campus without permission of the Workshop

staff and adult supervision.

Come prepared to play a polished piece for the first

class meeting. Your teacher can readily assess your

needs by hearing a technically and musically mature

piece. Students will receive additional repertoire on

site.
