​Creating Resonance Retreat

May 31 - June 3, 2023
at the Rochester Folk Art Guild
​​‘Creating Resonance’
The secret of using breath to produce your sound

 

Taking place at the Rochester Folk Art Guild in the beautiful Finger Lakes region of New York
 
Join flutists of all levels guided by Carol Wincenc, Louis Papachristos, Paul Schliffer, Rosa Jang and Jessica Schury with Russel Hall's ‘Feldenkrais for Flutists’. 
 
What is the EXACT quality of the sound I wish to make? Where does it come from? What is the key to producing my unique sound and using it to create musical meaning? How can we work effectively to improve technique? What obstacles need to be overcome? What happens when I free myself from the printed score and trust my inner musicality? Can a new sensitivity and awareness lead to discovering the body as an instrument?
 
Explore these and many other questions for a weekend of opening, relaxation and learning.
 
Days will include yoga, delicious meals, group and individual lessons, intro to ‘Feldenkrais for Flutists’ and a special work with Improvisation, with and without the flute.
 
You will also have time to explore the unique 50 year old Rochester Folk Art Guild community setting, including craft studios, pond, woods and fields. Most group sessions will be held in the Guild’s Meeting Hall, an inspiring sacred space and heart of the Guild since 1973.
We're committed to creating a safe environment. Attendees that are not vaccinated will be required to bring COVID tests and test every day in order to keep everyone safe. 
Schedule

Arrival will be Wednesday evening, May 31, with full days of activities Thursday through Saturday. Our final concert will be open to the public on Saturday evening, June 3rd. Participants that are flying, should plan to leave Sunday June 4th due to the distance from the airport.

"It was fun and inspiring to be with a group of people who just love playing the flute, in a magical setting with energetic teachers. I loved listening to others practicing, the sounds coming from various locations all at once!"
