For three days, the DGfF will host the international who’s who of the flute world. Soloists from all over the world are expected, who will not only perform live, but also pass on their knowledge in master classes. Historical and pedagogical topics related to the flute will be presented in more than 30 workshops and lectures. This year’s Composer in Residence is the Romanian composer Doina Rotaru. She has written outstanding contemporary works for flute, which will be presented and performed during the festival. In cooperation with the Freiburg Institute for Musicians’ Medicine and the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, events on musicians’ health will take place. On Saturday afternoon, there will be an extra youth programme for 1016 year olds at the Fluteenie Festival with great workshops, handson activities and a microconcert.
