The Monaro Flute Ensemble presents
Flute Masterclass and Ensemble Workshop
Are you a musician and would like to develop your skills as a flute player? Do you enjoy learning more about music but find taking flute lessons impractical? Would you like to learn what it feels like to play in a flute group and develop ensemble skills?
On the 7th of July you will have the rare opportunity to do all this and more! Viki Parsons, recipe a graduate of the Australian Institute of Music, will hold a flute masterclass where you can play your flute to receive advice and learn helpful techniques. If you do not wish to play in the masterclass you are welcome to come along as an observer and watch as others play. Following a lunch break during which you can talk to Viki and ask questions, there will be a Flute Ensemble workshop for players of all skill levels. You will have the opportunity to play in a group of flutes under the leadership of an accomplished flautist. The afternoon will be concluded by a short performance of the day’s work for residents at the Sir William Hudson Nursing Home.
When: Saturday July 7, 10:00am to 4:00pm.
Where: Cooma Little Theatre, Uran Street, Cooma. Click here for map.
Cost: $25 per participant, or $20 per observer.
