Welcome to Katrina Penman's Website!!

Thank you for visiting! Having graduated from the Royal College of Music, London, in July 2005, I am currently living in Rome, where I have just completed the first year of the postgraduate course in flute at the Conservatorio Santa Cecilia.  My professor there is Marianne Eckstein. 

Highlights of this year have included a concert at the Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome with the Conservatorio Orchestra in conjunction with the Vatican City, broadcast on Vatican TV and Radio, and the TV documentary series 'Conservatorio e...' for which I played and was interviewed.

During the year I have met a variety of wonderful musicians.  I have participated in a course of masterclasses at the Accademia Gazzelloni with Carlo Tamponi, principal flautist of the Accademia Santa Cecilia in Rome.  I have also played at masterclasses with Davide Formisano and Maurizio Simeoli from La Scala in Milan, Virginie Reibel from the Berlin Philharmonic and the great Michel Debost.  I'm also continuing to teach and have enjoyed working with adults and children at the British School in Rome.

ON THE WEBSITE: You can read about  the Royal College of Music, London, where I studied with Jaime Martin, and about the High Wycombe Music Centre, where my enthusiasm for music was greatly encouraged.  I had a wonderfully inspiring and supportive first flute teacher, Helen Duffy and a unique piano teacher, David Gray. You will also find some photos and you can listen to me playing with the excellent pianist Alisdair Kitchen, a colleague from the RCM.  There are also links to other websites, including my brother Alastair's fantastic saxophone website.

You can read the articles on my exchange to the Universitat der Kunste, Berlin, in 2003.           Please click here to view the articles
