For two days in March 2017, flutists young and old converged on CU Boulder for the Once a Flutist Festival. Including master classes with Sir James and Lady Jeanne Galway, panels and recitals, the event was a reminder that if you’re once a flutist… you’re always a flutist.

As the Boulder community benefits from the Artist Series' concerts, students at the College of Music enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime experience of seeing, learning from—even talking shop with—their idols.

In our final Faculty Tuesday recital of the season, Christina Jennings performs as part of the Once a Flutist festival in a program celebrating the diversity and community of the oldest instrument on Earth.

Scheduled for March 21 and 22, the Once a Flutist festival invites flutists from around the region to the Boulder campus for an immersion in the technique, diversity and spirit of the oldest instrument on Earth.

The Woodwind faculty continue our Faculty Tuesday series on Tuesday, Oct. 25. "Woodwinds in Evening" features works by Camille Saint-Saëns, Jean Françaix and Charles Gounod.
