You are invited to join us at the next Hampshire Flute/Piccolo Day. This is a wonderful opportunity to play your flute with friends and to get top tips from professional flautist and piccolo specialist, Peter Verhoyen. The morning’s activities will include warm ups with your flute, flute fitness and tone development, top tips for your piccolo playing and the option to join Zoë Smith for an individual flute and piano session to work on any exam pieces or forthcoming performances you may have. In the afternoon, there will be masterclasses with Peter and Zoë, and flute choir sessions run by Carrie Hensel.
