Rehearsals with Tim

Once again this year there will be opportunities to rehearse informally with Tim Carey. It is not necessary to have pieces prepared to performance standard, but the better prepared, the more there is to gain from the experience. Please book in for these on arrival and we will try and accommodate as many people as possible.

More info on Tim

Just Flutes.

Claire Beard from Just Flutes in Croyden will be present throughout the whole weekend with a huge selection of flutes, headjoints, accessories and sheet music. We have made sure that there will be ample time to browse and shop.

Flute Choir

Their will be 1 flute choir session on both days for the chance to get everyone playing together. There will also be the chance to have a go on the piccolo, alto and bass flutes, for those who want a change.

Relaxation/ Breathing

This year we have invited a yoga specialist to do a workshop on breathing, posture and performance anxiety. This will take place first thing on Saturday morning.

Instrument Repairs

Jessica Rance will be available throughout the weekend to give advice on maintenance and repair of your flute.
