The lack of a local flute choir outside of school led to Flute Salad’s first informal gathering in January 2006. Wanting to play for fun, the five founder members approached Louise who invited them round to her house where they laughed their way through the Jayson Mackie’s “2nd Jazz Suite” and other (now) favourites. |
|
Louise invested in a piccolo and an alto flute, giving Flute Salad a chance to explore a greater range of available arrangements. Recently, the bass flute has made its debut with the group too! |

Excitingly, the progress that the Salads made led to the invitation to become part of the Yateley Centre Saturday Music School and the number of shows lined up for both groups is growing steadily. Have a look at the Concert info page for details. |

In May 2006, Flute Salad appeared in public for the first time, winning the Aldershot and Farnborough Music Festival Ensemble for 18yrs and under, to the thunderous applause from their assembled parents! |
