HERBERT
LINDHOLM
was
born in Porvoo, Finland in 1946. He studied flute
with Juho Alvas at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, and completed his
Diploma
in Flute Performance in 1972. He have worked as the principal flute
teacher at
the Kuopio Conservatoire of Music and Dance in Finland from1969 until
2009. He
has also studied the basics of conducting with Jorma Panula and Jussi
Jalas,
and composition with Sakari Mononen and Joonas Kokkonen. Lindholm has
had
concerts and master classes with his own works around in Finland and
abroad in
Sweden, Spain and Norway. He has been a member of the Society of
Finnish
Composers since 1993.
The greater
part of Lindholm's output comprises chamber music works for
flute. His musical language is melodic and free-tonal. The suggestion
of
ancient mysticism is often evident in his works.
Lindholm, as
composer and pedagogue, wants to provide a bridge between the more
traditional and the most modern musical styles. He also aims to create
music
which is idiomatic for the instruments, and which is comfortably
playable for
the musician.
