Ileana Ruhemann studied at the Purcell school, Cambridge University and the Paris Conservatoire. She has been Principal flute of the BBC Concert Orchestra for over 30 years, a job she loves and appreciates for the variety of the work and versatility of the players. She has enjoyed a solo career alongside and has been committed to several chamber groups including Jeux, Fibonacci and Gemini. She has played as guest Principal flute of most of the orchestras in the UK and has had works written for her by composers ranging from John Tavener to Stanley Black. Teaching young children to play the flute and educational projects in schools and other communities have also played an important role in her musical life.
