Adult Ensembles

Conspirito Community Flute

Conspirito Community Flute Ensemble is a friendly and relaxed group of amateur adult flute enthusiasts of all ages who come together to share their love of music.

Current members range in ability from approximately AMEB Grade 2 up to tertiary qualified musicians, with music selected to satisfy more experienced members whilst having parts that are achievable for less experienced players.

The repertoire ranges across all styles and genres. We currently have members who play piccolo, concert flute, alto, bass and contrabass flute.
