FLUTES FROM AROUND THE WORLD

Suzanne offers clinics to College Flute Departments, Flute Clubs, and Private Flute Studios. 

In this fascinating lecture/presentation, Suzanne will introduce over 25 different flutes and wind instruments from around the world.  Presenting an overview of the history and cultural use of each instrument, she also demonstrates musical examples on each one providing interesting personal and historical stories as well.

She also provides a hands-on opportunity for the students and information on how to obtain these hard-to-find instruments.

With her unique background and career, she inspires the students to be open to the wide world of music and the many musical career possibilities that exist today.

A partial list of the flutes that she brings to the workshop include:  bass flute, alto flute, Chinese bamboo flutes (dizi), Turkish flute (ney), Egyptian winds (mijwiz), Turkish oboe (zurna), ocarina, Native American flute, Indonesian flute (suling), Chinese gourd oboe (hu lu se), East Indian bansuri, African Fulani flute, Hawaiin nose flute, pan pipes, penny whistle, low whistle, Bulgarian dyovanka, and more.

This clinic can also be expanded to FLUTES AND DRUMS FROM AROUND THE WORLD  which includes Gilbert Levy playing and teaching about many drums and percussion instruments from around the world.
