Julie Long

Los Angeles flutist Julie Long has played with nearly every major local ensemble at every major local venue. Hailed “a terrific flutist” by Julius Baker and called “the real deal” by Jim Walker, Long is creatively satisfied playing a variety of classical genres: from early music to contemporary, from solo to large ensemble.

As an orchestral flutist, Long has performed with the L.A. Philharmonic, LA. Chamber Orchestra, L.A. Opera Orchestra, L.A. Master Chorale Orchestra, Pacific Symphony, Long Beach Symphony and many others. She plays piccolo in the Long Beach Municipal Band, a 115-year-old professional ensemble that provides more than 20 concerts each summer in Long Beach parks. As a studio recording artist, she has played on over 50 major motion picture soundtracks, such as “Fantastic Four,” “Superman Returns” and “Horton Hears a Who.” With a D.M.A. minor in early music, Julie plays the wooden Baroque flute and has performed with Musica Angelica, LA Baroque Orchestra, Bach Collegium San Diego and Con Gioia Early Music Ensemble.

Julie is flute professor at Concordia University Irvine, Biola University and Long Beach City College. She received a B.M. from the Cleveland Institute of Music and has M.M. and D.M.A. degrees from the University of Southern California.
