Each year, the Global Flute Excellence Awards receive submissions from across the world — from rising artists to legendary flutists, innovative makers, educators, and ensembles.
Every nomination carries a story: of dedication, creativity, and the pursuit of excellence. Yet, what truly makes a nomination stand out among many?

Below are key insights to help you present your achievements with precision, sincerity, and artistic integrity.

1. Start with Purpose — Tell Your Story Clearly

A great nomination begins with a clear sense of why you are submitting.
Before filling out the form, take a moment to reflect:

• What defines your musical identity?

• What contribution have you made to your community, artistry, or the flute world at large?

• What makes your journey unique?

Tell your story with authenticity. The most compelling nominations speak not in exaggeration, but in truth — with passion and clarity.

2. Focus on Impact, Not Just Achievement

Awards celebrate more than technical mastery or credentials. The Global Flute Excellence Awards recognize the impact of your work: how it touches others, uplifts your field, and inspires the next generation.

When describing your accomplishments, highlight results and influence:

• How has your teaching transformed students?

• How has your artistry inspired audiences?

• How has your innovation advanced flute performance or design?

Impact turns personal success into a contribution — and that’s what excellence is truly about.

3. Choose Supporting Materials Wisely

Quality matters more than quantity. Select recordings, press features, or documents that best represent your artistry and vision.

Tips:

• Include one or two performance videos that demonstrate your range and expression.

• If you are a teacher or innovator, share tangible examples — projects, publications, or outreach results.

• Make sure all materials are clearly labeled and professionally presented.

A strong nomination feels cohesive — every file, link, and image should tell part of the same story.

4. Showcase Professionalism in Presentation

First impressions count. Take time to ensure your materials are organized, complete, and polished:

• Check spelling, grammar, and formatting.

• Use consistent naming for files (e.g., “YourName_PerformanceVideo2025”).

• Provide working links with access permissions.

Professionalism reflects not just your attention to detail, but your respect for the process and the panel evaluating your work.

5. Let Others Speak for You

Endorsements and testimonials can add depth and credibility. If possible, include short quotes from colleagues, mentors, or students that illustrate your impact.
These human voices often express what modesty prevents us from saying ourselves — and they help the jury see you through the eyes of your community.

6. Be Yourself — Authenticity Resonates

In a field filled with extraordinary talent, sincerity stands out.
The jurors and editors reading your submission are musicians, educators, and creators too — they recognize genuine artistry.

Avoid trying to “sound impressive.” Instead, be honest, passionate, and articulate about what drives your work. Excellence speaks loudest when it’s real.

7. Review Before You Submit

Before pressing “Send,” read everything aloud once.
Does it sound like you?
Does it reflect your voice, your values, and your achievements accurately?

If yes, then your nomination already shines.
