The British Flute Society's twenty-fifth birthday celebrations will continue this autumn with a special competition for advanced performers under the age of twenty-five. The competition will take place over the course of one day on Saturday 22 November 2008 at the Regent Hall, The Salvation Army, Oxford Street, London. We believe the competition is the first of its kind in the UK and expect it to be an exciting event with some of the world's most talented young performers taking part. The competition, involving two rounds, will be a celebration of British music. We are delighted to announce that the first prize will be a Resona 100 flute with offset G mechanism, provided by Burkart Flutes & Piccolos. First prize: Burkart Flutes & Piccolos Prize Second prize: The John Rayworth Prize £500 Third prize: The BFS Jubilee Prize £400 A leaflet and application form was enclosed in the June issue of Pan - the Flute Magazine and further copies may be obtained by clicking here or from Anna Munks, BFS Secretary.

| Friday, 12 September 2008 | Flute Workshops Inspired by Yoga - Niall O'Riordan Flute Breathing into Creativity - Pranayama - £12 We will look at our life energy and how we use it in our playing in the form of the breath. Pranayama is a Sanskrit word meaning "lengthening of the prana or breath". The word is composed of two Sanskrit words, "Prâna" - life force or vital energy andâyâma" - to lengthen or extend. When used as a technical term in yoga, it is often translated more specifically as "breath control". The yogic tradition has thousands of years of wisdom to share on the practice of breathing. This workshop will look at some of these techniques and how we can apply them directly to our flute playing. |
