CAFE Flutes at Wickenburg Community Center

Listen, Learn, and be Inspired! Get a close-up look at the 10-foot-long contrabass flute, then learn about music genres, flutes, and composers while enjoying a blend of oldies, classic melodies, patriotic favorites, and show tunes during this fun, free, interactive concert at the Wickenburg Community Center. Family friendly, all ages. At CAFE, we mindfully disregard the classical concert tradition of keeping the audience at a distance. Instead, we actively engage with our listeners! For example, rather than a printed program, we take turns standing up to introduce our music with interesting tidbits about the song and composer, and a dash of humor. We introduce and demonstrate the silver flute family: contrabass, bass, alto, C-flute and piccolo. Audience members get to have a hands-on experience when we send around our demonstration flute and piccolo. Additionally, listeners will connect with us during a Q&A session that is always spontaneous and fun. This concert will consist of two 45-minutes segments with a 10 minute intermission. Look forward to: *Instrument introductions: each flute will be heard individually and then showcased as part of the flute choir sound *Friendly, clear introductions to each piece along with interesting trivia about the music and composers *Active engagement with the audience by asking questions, inviting comments, and encouraging singing and clapping. *Feeling uplifted by sharing the joy of music After the concert, listeners are invited to see the instruments up close and chat with the performers.
