Players are of all ages and abilities: anyone is welcome as long as they enjoy playing the flute! We own alto and bass flutes, providing members with an opportunity to have a go on these rarer instruments.
We regularly work with composers to premiere new works. In 2017 we commissioned our own suite ‘The Planets Re-imagined’, and in 2020 we premiered a new work ‘Postcards from London’ by the American composer Ricky Lombardo.
Composers whose music we have performed or who we have worked with include Daniel Beilby, Giles Brindley, Peter Bruce, Roger Cawkwell, Derek Foster, Leo Geyer, John Holland, Martin Jones, Dana Joras, Tony Matthews, Michael Regan and Laura Shipsey.
Our repertoire encompasses a wide range of styles – music from the baroque, classical and romantic periods feature regularly alongside music from films and shows, popular music and staples from the contemporary flute choir repertoire.
In 2020 we launched our YouTube channel, where we regularly upload virtual performances and recordings of our in-person activities.
