FLUTE FESTIVAL INFORMATION & PROCEDURES

  • Undergraduate, Graduate, and Adult Performers must be 2025 members of the Texas Flute Society. Elementary, Jr. High, and High School students must either be members or have a teacher who is a member of TFS. Please encourage your students to join TFS so they receive newsletters, event announcements, and email announcements.
    *Elementary, Jr. High, and High School performers will be scheduled on Sunday, May 18th, 2025.
    **Adult and Collegiate performers will be scheduled on Saturday, May 17th, 2025 (during the Myrna Brown Competition).
  • Accompanists are required for selections with accompaniment. Please ensure that your accompanists are scheduled for no more than 25 solos/ensembles per day and include the accompanist’s full name on the application.
  • Performers must provide a legible copy of the music with numbered measures to the flute specialist, upon arrival at their assigned performance time. 
  • If interested, performers are allowed to record their performance, but must provide their own recording devices.
  • This is not a competition. Clinicians will provide feedback on a comment sheet.
  • Outstanding/Honor performers in each category (in-person only) will be posted on the TFS website following the Festival. Outstanding Soloists will receive a one-year membership for the Texas Flute Society. Certificates for Outstanding and Honor performers will be mailed to the teacher for distribution. 
  • Performers may also participate in the Festival Flute Choir Reading Session. It is open to any registered flutist or auditor at no additional charge. Performers may come and go as their schedule permits. Music will be distributed at the rehearsal. 
  • This is an all day festival, and admittance is included with Solo & Ensemble Registration. We encourage students and their parents to spend the day attending masterclasses, workshops, flute choirs, concerts, and exhibits. It is not every day that students have the opportunity to hear flutists at the caliber of our guest artists. The Festival provides an incredible and inspirational experience for flutists of all levels. Each student can bring up to two family members free of charge. Any additional family member attending the festival would cost $5. 
  • Teachers interested in attending the Festival must also register and pay the appropriate fee.
  • DEADLINE: Entries must be submitted online by May 4th. No entries will be accepted after this date. 

The Texas Flute Society is pleased to offer a selective number of need-based scholarships to students who would like to participate in the 2025 TFS Festival and require financial assistance. Select students will be invited to perform and attend at no cost.
