About
This is a series of study cycles for flute which can hardly be overlooked and which not only convey technical skills but also make artistic demands. Thanks to having taught at the Basle Academy of Music and at international courses for performers for decades, Peter-Lukas Graf has extensive experience in the field of education. Based on this wealth of material, he has now compiled an anthology which contains a representative selection of studies from different epochs and in different styles. The selection was mainly based on the stylistic breadth as well as on the varied technical aspects – a must for the training as a flautist.
Peter-Lukas Graf
Peter-Lukas Graf (1929-) was born in Zürich, Switzerland. He pursued flute studies with André Jaunet in Zürich, Marcel Moyse, and Roger Cortet in Paris. Graf earned the First Prize as a flautist and the Conductors Diploma at the Conservatoire Nationale de Paris.
For three years, he honed his skills in conducting in Munich. Graf’s talent was recognized when he won the First Prize at the International Music Contest of the ARD in Munich and the Bablock Prize of the H. Cohen International Music Award in London.
At a young age, Graf was appointed the principal flautist at the Winterthur Symphony Orchestra and the Lucerne Festival Orchestra, where he also took on conducting responsibilities. He later focused on full-time opera and symphonic conducting.
At 21, Graf’s recording of the Ibert Flute Concerto brought him international acclaim. Since then, he has toured globally, made numerous recordings, and performed at various international music festivals.
For over 20 years, he served as a professor at the Basle Music Academy and continues to conduct master classes worldwide.
Graf’s contributions to music education extend beyond teaching. He has written four didactic monographs, and in recognition of his achievements, he received the title of doctor honoris causa from the Academy of Music Cracow and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the USA National Flute Association in 2005. Additionally, the Italian FALAUT Association awarded him the Premio alla Carriera Flauto d’Oro.
