Patrick Gallois

Patrick Gallois is a renowned French flutist and conductor whose contributions to classical and baroque music have earned him an esteemed place in the global music community. Born on April 17, 1956, in Linselles, France, Gallois embarked on his musical journey at a tender age, eventually entering the prestigious Paris Conservatoire. There, he honed his skills under the tutelage of Jean-Pierre Rampal, a legend in flute performance. Gallois's mastery of the flute was recognized early in his career, leading to a solo position with the French National Orchestra relatively soon after his graduation.

Throughout his illustrious career, Patrick Gallois has not only excelled as a flute virtuoso but also as a dedicated conductor, bringing fresh interpretations to both well-known and obscure classical pieces. His discography reflects a deep affinity for the works of composers like Mozart, Mercadante, Cimarosa, and Devienne, among others. Albums such as "The Essential Patrick Gallois" showcase his versatility and technical prowess, while thematic collections like "Mozart For Sleep," "Mozart For Relaxation," and "Mozart For Inspiration" display his ability to curate music that resonates with listeners' various moods and needs. Gallois's work on series dedicated to specific composers, such as the volumes of flute concertos by Mercadante and Devienne, exemplifies his commitment to exploring and illuminating the nuanced repertoire for flute. Beyond performance, his role in recording and popularizing lesser-known works, such as those by W.F. Bach and Walckiers & Kuhlau, affirms his influential position in redefining the boundaries of classical flute music for the modern era.
