Paul Edmund-Davies Masterclass & Recital
The weekend of October 18-19th, we had our first Indy Flute Shop event, which was a big success! Powell Flutes helped us bring Paul Edmund-Davies in for the weekend. On Saturday, Paul held an interactive lecture on his new book The 28 Day Warm-up Book for All Flutists…Eventually, which has some new takes on popular warm-up exercises for flutists. On Sunday, Paul presided over a masterclass in which we had four undergraduate and graudate students perform. The students were selected through an audition process and ranged in age from a freshman in college to a second-year graduate student. Following the masterclass, Paul presented a wonderful recital full of some new, some tried and true, and some lesser well-known repertoire. I wanted to post some pictures of the weekend and hopefully soon I’ll have a more detailed summary of what he covered as well as some video! If you haven’t ever met Paul Edmund-Davies or heard him speak, I highly recommend watching for the videos to be posted! He is such a great speaker and also pretty hilarious! I think there were several people in attendance that were close to tears from laughing so hard. You can tell he loves what he does and all
