Review: a successful flute workshop with Berdien Stenberg
Last Saturday, the one and only Berdien Stenberg led a flute workshop at our store. Participants were accompanied by a pianist, and Berdien also brought along a group of her own students. Together, they formed an impressive flute orchestra of around 45 players.

During the workshop, Berdien focused on areas including breathing technique, sound production and ensemble playing. Participants received both individual guidance and practical tips on how to improve their cohesion as a group. With her enthusiasm and many years of experience, she inspired everyone and challenged them to bring out the very best in their playing. A particularly memorable moment was the joint performance, where the flute orchestra truly came to life—a musical highlight of the day.
We would like to thank Berdien and all participants for their enthusiasm, and we look back on a successful and inspiring day. We hope to welcome you again at a future workshop!
