Sandrine Tilly Flute Masterclass

Sandrine Tilly, Principal Flute of the Orchestre National du Capitole, presents a masterclass featuring students from the NEC flute studios.

Born in Tours, Sandrine initially studied flute with Isabelle Ory before enrolling at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris aged 17, from where she graduated with the “premier prix à l’unanimité” in both flute (with Pierre Yves Artaud) and chamber music (with Christian Lardé and David Walter). Her other mentors include Patrick Gallois, Michel Moraguès, Aurèle Nicolet and Andréas Adorjan, as well as the baroque specialist Philippe Allain-Dupré.

As a concerto soloist Sandrine has performed regularly with the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse (including concertos by Bach, Vivaldi, Mozart, Takemitsu, Nielsen and Ibert), the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra in Venezuela and the Orchestre de Chambre de Toulouse, with whom she recorded works for flute and orchestra by Aimé Kunc, and Dorothy and Carmine de José Serebrier. She has also appeared as soloist with the Orchestre Symphonique de Tours, Orchestre de la Bibliotheca Alexandrina in Egypt and the Orchestre Symphonique de Larà.
