Beyond the enchanting melodies, the flutists invite their listeners to touch, feel, and intimately explore the inner workings of both the C-flute and the 10-inch piccolo by sending demonstration instruments into the audience for examination!
Listeners will see their faces, hear their voices, and connect with them during a Q&A session. They will introduce and demonstrate the entire silver flute family: contrabass, bass, alto, C-flute and piccolo.
Look forward to:
- Instrument introductions: each flute will be heard individually and then showcased as part of the flute choir sound
- Friendly, clear introductions to each piece along with interesting trivia about the music and composers
- Active engagement with the audience by asking questions, inviting comments, and encouraging singing and clapping.
