I found the Grolloo Flute Session an incredibly inspiring experience. It allowed me to discover my strengths and weaknesses as a performer, open up to new ideas in my performance (breathing, warm up, extended techniques which were completely new to me) and collaborate with players from all around the world. Having the opportunity to watch my performance in a masterclass immediately after, have time to absorb this and only then discuss it all as a group was definitely a useful one. It meant that I could objectively consider the good and bad in my performance and perhaps realise than how you feel straight after a performance does not necessarily reflect how it went!! Definitely the highlight of my summer. Thank you! I can’t wait for next year… :)

I look back on my time at Grolloo with absolute fondness. It was easily one of the best times I’ve had making music, with all of the very talented and creative musicians here at this festival. The instructors were also amazing, each with their own unique specialties and ideas to share with us. There is nothing quite like this experience.
