Your place in the woodwinds
The flute at AChA
Flutes carry some of the most luminous lines in sacred orchestral writing — the soaring descants above a hymn, the delicate filigree over strings. In the Australian Christian Orchestra the woodwind section is small enough that every flute part genuinely matters.
Auditioning as a flautist
Grade 7+ AMEB (or equivalent). Send a short video — a study, a movement, or a hymn descant. Doublers on piccolo or alto flute, please mention it.
Flautist questions
Do you need piccolo doublers?
Often, yes — piccolo is programmed in bigger works. If you double, that's a real asset.
How many flute chairs are there?
Typically two to three, depending on the season's repertoire.
