Hello Flutewise Friends!
It’s been far too long since I last wrote something here – sorry about that! Life has been rather busy, but now things have settled (well, as settled as life ever gets!), it’s time to get Flutewise buzzing again.
I hope this finds you well, happy, and still enjoying your flute. I’d also love you to be part of the exciting next chapter in the Flutewise story.
Two big things are on the horizon:
✨ The National Flutewise Play In Day
✨ The Flutewise Project
The idea is simple – to get more people picking up the flute, and to inspire those who already play by joining together in these fun, nationwide events.
🎶 The National Flutewise Play In Day
This will take place during the week beginning 22nd September, with a special focus on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th at 11.00am.
We’ll all be playing Brian Boru’s March (you can find it on the website) – plus any other music you fancy. Play anywhere that suits you: school, home, garden centre, beach… you name it! And if you don’t have nearby flute friends, no worries – you can join us online.
🎶 The Flutewise Project
At the end of each term, we’ll be encouraging flute players to get together and perform some brilliant ensemble pieces. Over the years, Flutewise has collected a treasure trove of music – with parts for everyone, from absolute beginners to confident players.
This term we’re starting with easy, accessible music, but as the terms go on, the repertoire will grow in both variety and challenge. You’ll also find warm-ups and solos to dip into, but the real magic is in playing together.
So please check the website, join in, and spread the word to other flute players. Let’s remind the world just how wonderful it is to play the flute!
I’d love to hear your news too – and of course, I’m here to answer any questions.
Happy flute playing,
Liz 🎵
