Flute JAM next Saturday (1/22/11)

The Austin Flute Club FLUTE JAM is quickly approaching (next Saturday, January 22!). AFC is pleased to share the opportunity for Austin flutists and teachers to attend back-to-back classes lead by Rachel Lopez and Bryan Kennard.

Mr. Kennard will kick off the morning with an introduction to jazz improvisation class, for all in attendance to participate. No experience in jazz is required!
Ms. Lopez is teaching a solo repertoire class highly recommended to any flute student preparing for solo and ensemble, especially those preparing piccolo pieces as Ms. Lopez is an accomplished piccolo player.

A short reception will follow the masterclasses, as well as a recital for any student wanting extra experience performing in front of an audience. Na Wang Flute Company will also have flutes on display and available for trial at the event.

Masterclass applications and recital registration forms are available online: http://www.austinfluteclub.com/afc_forms
