Henrik Linnemann
Flute
Originally classically trained at the Royal Northern College of Music, Henrik has had a hugely varied career as a classical solo and ensemble flautist as well as a freelance session musician, working in film, radio and theatre including pop sessions in and around the UK, (tracks with ‘Take That’, ‘’S Club Seven’, Donny Osmond, Emma Bunton, Des’ree and many more.)
Henrik fronted the quartet ‘LJQ’ for 9 years with which he recorded two highly acclaimed albums of his own jazz originals (‘Journeys from Nether Edge’ and ‘Dancing Peak to Peak’) playing concert, alto and bass flutes. He later explored Indian Classical/Euro fusion music, working with the ensemble ‘INDUS’, culminating in an Arts Council sponsored tour of the UK and another successful album, ‘Firefly’.
Since 1982, Henrik has continued to teach and perform from his base in Sheffield and has remained much in demand for his ability to comfortably improvise in a wide variety of musical genres.
