DANIEL WAITZMAN, winner of the Concert Artists
Guild competition and the recipient of a Solo Recitalist’s
Fellowship Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts,
performs on modern and Baroque flutes and recorders. His
familiarity with the performance styles of Bach and his
contemporaries led Rosalyn Tureck to invite him to perform and
lecture for her Bach Institute. He tours nationwide and has given
solo recitals at the Frick Collection, Mills College in Oakland,
the Phillips Collection in Washington, the Cleveland Museum of
Art, and on the Flutists' Showcase series in Philadelphia, along
with Rampal and Galway. As flute and recorder soloist, he has
performed with the Bach Aria Group, the Y Chamber Symphony,
Clarion Concerts, and the Mostly Mozart Festival. Mr. Waitzman
studied recorder with Bernard Krainis; flute with Samuel Baron,
Harold Bennett, Harry Moskovitz, Claude Monteux, and Paul
Ehrlich; harmony and counterpoint with Charles Walton, Genevieve
Chinn, and Peter Westergaard; composition with Otto Luening; and
musicology with Paul Henry Lang.
