Happy New Year everyone. I hope this year will bring all of us a great deal of happiness and enjoyment through our flute playing.
Flutewise: Let’s Play Together.
I’m very excited about a new project we will be ready to launch very soon, it is called Flutewise: Let’s Play Together. You will see a few additions and changes going on on the website to start with, most of it you won’t be able to access (sorry) for a little while, but I think the wait will be worth it. The main part of the project is a book of ensemble music, pieces that we love to play as flute players and pieces that the public love to hear. The hope is that we can have lots of you all over the country, and even the world, getting together and enjoying playing this music together in public places with three main aims ;
to have fun making music
to raise awareness of flute playing and music making and encourage new players
to give something back to our communities eg raising funds for a charity
I’m extremely grateful to the enormous hard work and talent Jerry Randalls has offered to this project as well as Abbie Burrows and Jess Cooling. The music is ready now but I’ve lots of work to do getting it into a presentable form and testing more of not out before we go to print, hopefully in early March.
