From May 31-June 3, the Panoramic Flutist—a program for aspiring and professional flutists—will host an interactive, four-day residential that includes workshops, master classes and/or private lessons, as well as experiencing faculty recitals and even enjoying yoga together. 

And be sure to spread the word about Flute + Trumpet Day on June 11: Designed for high school students, this fun-filled day will include warmup sessions, classes, workshops, and performances featuring Professor of Flute Christina Jennings and Associate Professor of Trumpet Ryan Gardner.

“We’re very much looking forward to bringing high School flutists and trumpeters to CU for a day of music and community,” says Jennings. “The flutes and trumpets are sort of the pack leaders of their instrument families and bringing these shiny leaders together is a fun way of bonding and sharing the CU experience.”

Adds Gardner, “It’s been a great deal of fun to collaborate and to share ideas with Christina. We’re so excited to host and work with the students, to play fun music … and, most of all, to have a great time!”
