Grab your flute and join us as we take our technical and interpretive skills on the flute to the next level with this fun virtual camp! The Hochstein School and the Rochester Flute Association are excited to offer this online opportunity for a morning camp session focusing on important flute skills and an afternoon session offering an array of mini-lessons, composing and arranging, and a virtual ensemble project. The morning session will include workshops on tone, scales and arpeggios, etudes, solo repertoire, and more, designed to help you refine your playing and develop a foundation for your daily practice routine. The afternoon session, “Flute in Other Ways," will include the opportunity to focus on more creative aspects of music-making as a flutist. These offerings may include work in small virtual ensembles, composing and arranging (learning how to use free, online notation programs), and mini-lessons with our instructors. From 12:00-1:00 pm every day, students from both sessions will join together to observe and participate in guest artist experiences and group discussions, as well as yoga and mindfulness for musicians. This will not be a playing session, so those participating can eat lunch while watching or chatting in a group discussion. Sign up for both morning and afternoon sessions and experience a full-day camp! The daily sessions will be held via Zoom. A Zoom-compatible device is required for participation, such as a smartphone, laptop, or tablet that has a basic video recording capability and a microphone.
