Whether you’re keeping in touch between residential courses, or perhaps only have time for the mini-Flutes at the Barns experience, an FATB Flute Day is jam-packed with music, fun and inspiration. Activities include playing together, workshops and warm-ups and the themed Flute Days also include the opportunity to take part in an accompanied masterclass (see individual Flute Day descriptions, below, for more detailed information). The course fee is inclusive of lunch, all refreshments, as well as the wonderful range of fully inclusive music-making.
