Press Reviews For Adam Walker

‘Flautist Adam Walker is a stunning talent. At 22, he plays with the artistry of a performer of maturer years, and this opening recital of the Gwyl Gregynog festival, given with pianist Huw Watkins, showed what an exciting prospect he represents. It was not simply Walker’s display of virtuosity - graceful and apparently effortless - that was astonishing, but his ability to characterise the music so vividly.'
The Guardian Gwyl Gregynog Festival June 2010

‘Walker, aged 22 and first flute of the London Symphony Orchestra, was so dazzling in his solo performance of a Virtuoso Flamenco Study by one Krzysztof Zgraja that I doubted whether it’s possible to play the instrument better.'
The Sunday Times City of London Festival July 2010

‘The Academy players were alert to Perahia’s every nuance, with flautist Adam Walker and oboist Christopher Cowie outstanding.'
The Guardian ASMF/Birmingham Symphony Hall November 2009

`The Poem [Griffes] for flute and piano was exquisitely well played by Adam Walker'
The Guardian/Andrew Clements Wigmore Hall June 2009

`After the interval we were treated to more heady sensuality in a restrained yet wonderfully evocative performance of Debussy‘s Prélude a l’après-midi d‘un faune in which Adam Walker’s solo flute playing was quite simply superb.'

`Adam Walker and Sally Pryce were the young and phenomenally talented soloists in Mozart‘s Concerto for Flute and Harp, K299, exquisitely played and flawless in its perfection.’
The Guardian Barbican/Mostly Mozart Festival July 2008

`Hall One highlights, for me, were ….the brilliant young flautist Adam Walker playing Varèse.'
The Sunday Times King's Place Opening Concert October 2008

`Flautist Adam Walker stood out as the young artist to watch in this festival. Together with harpist Sally Pryce, Walker‘s fluently expressive tone added a gloss to the rerun of Duddell’s 2004 Presteigne commission, Mnemonic. And, at their morning recital in Kinnerton, Walker and Pryce performed with vibrant energy in the premiere of David Bruce‘s Gigue, and with a dark intensity in Michael Berkeley’s Last Breath.'
The Guardian Presteigne Festival August 2008

`Mozart‘s Concerto in C major for Flute and Harp offered a brief repose after the interval and an opportunity for another talented young star to shine. Twenty year-old flautist Adam Walker, accompanying Sally Pryce on the harp, gave a quite exceptional performance, with a modesty and poise that seemed well beyond his years.’

‘The youthful Adam Walker demonstrated a pure, bright flute tone’.
