What is Flute Boost?
Flute Boost! is a dynamic intensive for flute students age 12-20 who are looking to take their playing to the next level, in an energetic and supportive setting.
Young flutists experience an inspiring week of classes, recitals, and ensembles with outstanding faculty and special guest artists. This camp is available to campers entering grades 7-12 in the fall and incoming university freshmen.
Hosted by Dr. Laurel Swinden, Flute Boost! builds on each individual participants' previous musical experiences, and presents them with new challenges and goals.
Students participate in daily classes including warmup and technique sessions,
tone development, and chamber music.
We foster a collaborative learning environment, emphasizing solid fundamentals, musicianship, and creativity. Each student receives a private lesson, daily group instruction, and coaching in small chamber ensembles.
The week culminates with students performing in a final chamber music recital.
