Biography

The French flutist Nolwenn Bargin was accepted into Jean-Claude Gérard’s class at the State University of Music Stuttgart at the age of 19. Five years later she obtained her diploma and was subsequently accepted into Davide Formisano’s soloist class, where she graduated with highest honors in 2010. She received her first temporary contract in 2004 from the Württembergische Philharmonie Reutlingen. This was followed by temporary contracts at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, where she played under conductors such as Pierre Boulez, Ricardo Chailly and Gustavo Dudamel.

She has been assistant principal flute with the Orchester Musikkollegium Winterthur since 2008. Various orchestras regularly invite her as a substitute, for example the Berlin Philharmonic, where she has already played under conductors such as Mariss Jansons and Bernhard Haitink, or the  Zurich Opera House under conductors such as Fabio Luisi and Nello Santi. She was also invited by the Cameristi della Scala for the El Jem Festival. At the same time, Nolwenn Bargin invests a lot of time and energy in training young people and students. She has led the flute class in Feldkirch since 2017.
