Flute Studio
The UNCSA Flute Studio is composed of high school, undergraduate and graduate students from across the country who study with renowned flutist and pedagogue, Dr. Tadeu Coelho. We pride ourselves in the diverse, yet tight-knit community that has been formed and continues to endure year after year.
For prospective students who are interested in joining our flute family, you can schedule a visit to UNCSA and sit in on a flute masterclass, lesson or Flute Ensemble rehearsal. Please email Dr. Tadeu Coelho at coelhot@uncsa.edu to coordinate.
Audition Requirements
Additional application information is available on the Admissions website.
High School
Please submit video recordings with your application of at least 2 contrasting works following the repertoire guidelines below. You can choose to submit one recording with both works included or 2 separate recordings, but they should total 5-10 minutes of recorded material.
Students will be asked to attend a live virtual audition to review these recordings with the faculty, and should expect additional playing requests at that time. If you cannot attend a live virtual audition, you will need to submit additional recordings to fulfill all requested repertoire. Those that audition by recording or live will be considered equally for admission.
- Exposition of the First movement of a Mozart Concerto (G or D)
