-Ensembles with other types of instruments and at least 2 low flutes
-Flute orchestras with at least 8 players and low flutes
We also award prizes:

Our adjudicators are internationally renowned: Anders Hagberg, Carla Rees, Matthias Ziegler, Ramón Lazzaroni, Sophie Dufeutrelle Champeaux and Tilmann Dehnhard.
The competition is organized during the 1st Adams Low Flutes Festival in Ittervoort (Limburg). For 3 days we immerse ourselves again in an international group of flute players, beginners, amateurs, students and professionals, to gain new experiences, to exchange ideas, to receive lessons, to play along, to test, to catch up, to listening, in short: to dive into a colorful world of like-minded people. Welcome!
Eva Kingma and Matthias Ziegler provide a unique insight into the construction of the double contrabass flute and how it is played.
It takes a while, but then you have something special. This saying also applies to Eva Kingma and her flute. The double contrabass, as her brand-new instrument is called, is finally finished after ten years of honing and tweaking. Don't miss it!
