The Upper Midwest Flute Association, Inc. sponsors a series of informal member recitals throughout the year. Modeled after Nineteenth-century Schubertiads, where Franz Schubert and his friends performed for each other in their homes, the Parlor Concert Series provides a friendly and relaxed setting for performers and audiences alike. Concerts are held across the UMFA membership area in member’s homes; Parlor Concerts are the perfect venue try out a new piece or have a dry run before a recital or jury.
UMFA provides an accompanist or you may bring your own. Rehearsal with the pianist begins at 1:00 pm. performers may also play works for solo flute, duets or other ensembles.
Audience members are invited to bring their flutes, piccolos and altos (and music stands) and join in a flute choir reading session following the performance.
If you are interested in playing or would like more information please contact Vanamali Medina at umfa.parlor.concerts@gmail.com. If you plan on attending as an audience member, please RSVP to maintain an accurate head count for the host, at which time you will receive the street address.
Thank you to Dan and Lori Mans for hosting this parlor concert!
