Flute Student Information

Welcome to the Flute Studio of Jennifer Keeney at the University of Houston!

We are a supportive, happy and energetic community of Flutists! There are many unique opportunities here in my Flute Studio and in the Flute Studios at the University of Houston. There will be 12 Students in my Flute Studio during the 2011-2012 year at the University of Houston. I have all levels Freshman to Graduate Students, with a mix of Performance, Music Education and Business of Music Majors. You will have private lessons, studio classes, tone & technique class each week. You will also be able to perform in 2 or 3 Studio Recitals a semester. Other opportunities to perform in school include, Studio and Master Classes, Tuesday Recitals, Sophomore Partner Recitals, Junior, Senior, Masters and Doctoral Recitals. We have many guests that give Master Classes each semester with a range of topics from flute performance, teaching, breathing, alexander technique, performance anxiety, buying a new instruments, competitions, auditions, etc. (Please see calendar for topics and guests). Part of my intention for you to be fully invested and creatively involved in your own education. Each semester you will have a plan that guides you as a Freshman, Masters student etc..., and an individual plan that is unique to your goals and dreams as a flutist, musician, and educator. All students are also involved in our annual Flute Fest in March, co-sponsored with the Houston Flute Club.

Each student signs up at Rehearsal Net and will be assigned an accompanist (another great opportunity here at UH) to work with during your lessons, Studio Classes and on Recitals for the semester.

We have Studio Class each week in, Room 118, at The Moores School of Music. We also join the with all the flutists at UH a few times a year on a topic or with a special guest to build our flute knowledge and to join as a supportive flute community here at the University of Houston, Moores School of Music. You are welcome to attend, just send me an email or call 713-446-9889 to let me know you would like to come and visit us!
