The Flute Studio

November 8!

🍁🧙‍♂️ Fall has arrived in the South, and it feels like we’ve stepped straight into the Wizarding World! 🍂✨ The air is getting cooler, the leaves are turning like enchanted clockwork, and magic is in the air. What better way to kick off the holiday season than with a charmed concert from the Salisbury Symphony? 🎻🪄

Get ready for a night of musical sorcery that’ll leave you spellbound. Grab your wands, your cloaks, and join us for a magical evening you won’t want to miss! 🎄🎶⚡️

So true!

True yesterday, true today, true tomorrow.
The ensemble player must be fully prepared for the first rehearsal!
Only then can we make music.

"There are some people who are very good at sight-reading; but skilful sight-reading, although an extremely useful talent on occasion, is not a substitute for knowing the repertoire. The danger of depending on this facility is a certain mechanical, routine performance of the notes without any infusion of the feeling the composer meant to express; like an expert shorthand-typist translating dots and squiggles into English prose with never care for what it actually means. That is not good enough. You must know your instrument, you must know your individual part, and you must also know how the music sounds as a whole. Only then you will play with involvement."
