LINDA CHATTERTON, Flute

"The kind of performance that sparks wild standing ovations. Definitive" 
says the American Record Guide of flutist Linda Chatterton. Ms. 
Chatterton has performed in New York at Carnegie Hall and Lincoln 
Center, was a featured recitalist on the prestigious Dame Myra Hess 
series in Chicago, and has been heard throughout the US many times on 
National Public Radio's Performance Today. A Minneapolis-based artist, 
Ms. Chatterton has performed with numerous groups including the 
Minnesota Orchestra, and she tours regularly as a duo performer with 
harp, guitar and piano. As a concerto soloist, highlights include many 
performances of traditional and contemporary repertoire in the US and 
Europe. She has served as a US State Department Arts Ambassador 
overseas.

Ms. Chatterton has commissioned, recorded and premiered dozens of new 
works. She recently gave the world premiere of Chen Yi's "Southern 
Scenes" flute and pipa concerto with the Hawai'i Symphony Orchestra, 
conductor JoAnn Falletta and pipa player Gao Hong, as well as the world 
premiere of Cuban composer Leo Brouwer's work for flute and guitar 
quartet, with the Minneapolis Guitar Quartet, in St. Paul. In 2022, she 
and guitarist Maja Radovanlija will be premiering a major new work 
written for them by Brazilian-American composer Clarice Assad, through a 
Chamber Music America Classical Commissioning grant.

Past projects include concert tours in China, Thailand, Hong Kong and 
Taiwan; a concerto performance with the State Hermitage Chamber 
Orchestra in Moscow, Russia, with a master class at the Moscow 
Conservatory; concerts and master classes in the UAE, Spain, Cuba, 
Montenegro and Romania; a concert tour of Australia with pianist Matthew 
McCright; and a sold-out concert at the DiMenna Center in New York City 
of contemporary chamber music by Hong Kong composers. Her London concert 
at the famous St. Martin-in-the-Fields concert series with McCright 
garnered the review: "Throughout the concert Chatterton displayed lovely 
tone and a fine sense of line, with technical prowess which was always 
understated, resulting in some involving and intelligent performances."

She is the first and only two-time flutist to win a McKnight Artist 
Fellowship for Musicians, and she has received many awards from the 
Jerome Foundation, the Minnesota State Arts Board, Chamber Music America 
and the American Composers Forum.

She received her Master of Music degree from the University of 
Minnesota, studying with Julia Bogorad, and her Bachelor of Music degree 
from the Eastman School of Music as a scholarship student of Bonita 
Boyd.
