National Flute Association

The four-day event includes a numerous amount of workshops, masterclasses, competitions, and performances from flute players based all around the world.

While it can't replace the convention, the Summer Series is an opportunity for more of us than ever to connect through our shared love of flute.".

These committees helped establish the NFA's music commission program, create scholarships and competitions, and collect pedagogical materials aimed at young flutists.

The Annual NFA Convention currently hosts 22 performance competitions in solo, flute choir, and masterclass categories.

The NFA supports promising students with several scholarships named after flutists whose involvement in the organization helped shape its vision: The annual Frances Blaisdell Scholarship, named for Frances Blaisdell, provides a U.S. high school or undergraduate student with the opportunity to receive complimentary registration for that year's convention and take advantage of the many performances, workshops, and sessions being offered.

Every other year, the NFA offers the Myrna Brown Scholarship, which allows an international student to attend and present at the Annual Convention.

The Deveau Scholarship is awarded for the outstanding performance of the NFA High School Soloist Competition commissioned work.

The NFA holds the largest lending library of flute music internationally, with a catalog of more than 15,000 works, many of which are rare or out of print.

NFA members create ongoing publications to communicate with the flute world and share valuable research, history, educational, and pedagogical resources.
