One sad effect of the pandemic is inevitable changes to summer music programs. Some have virtual sessions planned, while others are gearing up for in person classes. Still other programs have canceled for 2021 or are awaiting a final decision as they see how the next months progress. Because of the uncertainties ahead, the details in this directory may change over time. We will update the online listing as new information arrives. We encourage summer camps and masterclasses who wish to be included to send any developments to editor@flutetalkmagazine.com. You may also be included in the Addendum in The Instrumentalist magazine by sending information to advertising@theinstrumentalist.com or by filling out the form here.
