Just reminding everyone of something which was listed on the course syllabus: all flute students are expected to attend flute related recitals (third yr recitals, graduating recitals as well as faculty flute recitals). These are extremely important to your musical development and understanding of concepts presented in lessons. They are also free and accessible, being usually in the PTY. I will announce recital dates here as I get them. But some upcoming dates you need to reserve in your agenda: Tuesday 29 September faculty trio (flute, viola and piano) recital at 8 pm in PTY; Saturday 24 October at 8 pm (faculty chamber music recital) and Sunday 1 November at 230 pm (a solo faculty recital, with pianist Michelle Mares). IF you have a class on TUesday evening please let me know and I will see what we can do to arrange an excused absence. There is also an optional (but encouraged!) solo flute recital on 19 November at 8 pm (of solo unaccompanied works) in downtown Victoria .
