This group is for flutists from 5th through 8th grades. Students must be involved in their school's band program or be taking private lessons.
Flute choir is an excellent opportunity for young flutists to learn more about their instrument. Often in band situations, because there is only one teacher to help a class full of budding musicians, the instructor cannot possible tell if each student is correctly blowing, fingering the notes, articulating, etc. In flute choir, I stress correct posture and hand and body positioning, accurate articulation, good tone production and breathing, playing in tune with others, and becoming more independent players. We will work on a variety of musical styles from 3-part music to 6-part or more. This means that players may be alone on their part, rather than sharing parts with someone else, creating in them more confidence as a performer. And I move the parts around, meaning the same person is not always on first: everyone who want to can play first flute.
And the added bonus? It's fun!

Review of LeeAnn Sterling, April 29, 2009
LeeAnn came to me as a doctoral student at the U. of O. already a fine player. She had much experience, but was very open to new ideas. She soon became one of the strongest members in my class, worked very well with others, and agreed to became my T. A.
As a muscian LeeAnn is first rate.
As a teacher LeeAnn is one of the very best.

Review of LeeAnn Sterling, April 29, 2009
I have been taking lessons with LeeAnn for the past few years at Marylhurst University where I am finishing a bachelors degree in music performance. I'd have to confess to being overly sensitive to who I let in to my musical world, I'm very glad I finally let her in as my instructor. Not only does she exhibit masterful technique and a warm & spirited tone on the instrument, but she has proved to be an extremely resilient iinstructor, weathering the storms of my musical passion and opinionated moments, and staying consistently present with support and positive reinforcement. As an advancing adult player I feel she did a great job of supporting my musical development, helping to refine the rough edges of my technique, and meeting me on the level of artistry, helping me to wrought out all of my potential for individual expressiveness on the instrument.
She complimented her technical feedback with anecdotal stories drawn from her own undergrad and graduate studies, and professional performing experience.I have been taking lessons with LeeAnn for the past few years at Marylhurst University where I am finishing a bachelors degree in music performance.
