Ulrich Herkenhoff

Ulrich Herkenhoff is a German pan flute virtuoso who’s spent decades redefining the instrument’s role in classical and contemporary music. Known for his silky tone and technical mastery, he effortlessly bridges genres – whether he’s breathing new life into Bach suites, jazzing up Piazzolla tangos, or collaborating with guitarists and organists in innovative duo projects. His discography reads like a love letter to the pan flute’s versatility, with albums that pair its earthy warmth with everything from church organs to cinematic orchestration.

A true ambassador for his instrument, Herkenhoff’s “Art of Pan” series and other releases showcase both his creative arrangements and knack for unearthing hidden gems from the classical canon. When he’s not reviving Baroque works or commissioning new pieces, you might catch him adding playful flair to solo sketches or exploring folk-inspired melodies. Through his recordings and performances, he’s helped shift the pan flute from niche novelty to respected concert hall voice, one breathy, melodic phrase at a time.
