CLAIRE MANN : Online Flute & Whistle Workshops - 12/19 Dec.

FluteFling Online Traditional Flute & Whistle Workshops - 12 and 19 December 2020

The COVID situation makes the Aberdeen FluteFling we'd normally have at this time of year impossible. As an alternative we've arranged a virtual workshop mini series with Claire Mann as the tutor. Those of you who were at the 2018 FluteFling in Edinburgh in 2018 will know what a skilled, popular and entertaining tutor Claire is.

The workshops will cater for both flute and whistle. They will be delivered, via Zoom, from Claire's house, near Newton Stewart in SW Scotland, and will take place over two consecutive weekends with a morning and afternoon part each day. There is an additional opportunity to be part of a group video performance, based on material featured in the workshops.

Claire will teach by ear but sheet music will be provided and a recording will be available in advance.

More details of the workshops and ticketing are available here:

These are the latest updates in resonse to some queries :

Workshop Access: For those in different timezones or unable to make the scheduled workshop times for any reason, the workshops will be recorded and made available to all ticket holders in a secure archive until January 09 2021. It will give all participants the option of revisiting the teaching and enhancing the learning as often as you like for that period. The videos will be removed from the archive after that date. We believe that this is a secure and practical way for everyone to get the most out of the experience.

Data protection: The privacy of attendees will be respected and the recordings will focus on Claire, who will have her own camera. A co-host will also be on hand. Purchasing a ticket gives your consent to participate in these recorded events.

The website has been updated to reflect these changes: http://www.flutefling.co.uk/scottish-fl ... mber-2020/
