CURRICULUM VITAE


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 and director musices since 2010.
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.
