The Adult Amateur Competition is open to any person who engages in the pursuit of flute playing on an unpaid basis and who is not currently enrolled as a student at a university. Three winners (one from each category of repertoire) will be selected to perform in an online masterclass with a well-established professional member of the NFA. The purpose is to engage a broader range of the amateur flutist population in the NFA.
Applicants may enter one category per year. Winners in the Novice and Intermediate categories may enter a more difficult category in the future, but winners of any category are ineligible to compete in that category again.
Or log into your Member Portal. An active NFA membership is required to apply.
All entrants must submit their entry, upload recordings/supplemental materials, and pay competition and membership fees by 11:59 p.m. Central Standard Time, Wednesday, February 12, 2025.
Each piece should be uploaded as a separate file. All uploaded files must be audio recordings. No videos are allowed. All Recorded Round repertoire must be recorded WITH accompaniment.
