Few
flutists today could be called living legends, yet Jim Walker
is surely among those few. There is little Jim has not accomplished
in his musical career. Jim counts among his successes careers
as an orchestral flutist, concert artist, jazz flutist, recording
artist for hundreds of motion picture soundtracks, ethnic flutist,
author, and renowned educator. He has performed to great
acclaim with some of the greatest classical and non-classical
artists of our time, including James Galway, Leonard Bernstein,
Wayne Shorter, Dudley Moore, and Paul McCartney.
His tireless contributions to the flute
community have raised the visibility of the flute as a medium
of expression and have provided new and valuable opportunties
to flutists of all levels and abilities. His students
now have successful musical careers themselves and are performing,
teaching, and contributing to their communities in places
the world over.
