FluteWild! Camp 2011 We had a lot of fun at FluteWild Camp this summer! This year's theme was Flute Stars: Music From the Stage and Screen. The students had a lot of fun playing flutes, piccolos, alto and bass flutes, working on tone and intonation, learning about the flute in popular culture, how to improvise, and experiencing what it's like to play in a masterclass. They also played a lot of music and performed it in a recital at the end of the week. If you would like to be part of the fun next year, visit our new website at www.flutewild.com. |
