Master Class with Jim Walker

Former Principal Flute of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Jim Walker has dedicated himself to flute pedagogy and jazz since 1984. In this master class, he works with student flutists Hye Ryung Lim and Seung Jeon on the three movements of Mozart’s Flute Concerto in D Major. A favorite concerto of the flute repertoire, the work was first composed in C Major for oboe, and later reworked as part of a commission for three flute concertos by Ferdinand Dejean, a surgeon with the Dutch East India Company (of which Mozart would complete only two!).
