Praised by the Royal Gazette for his “beautiful phrasing” and “bright and lively playing,” flutist Nicholas Southwick made his international solo debut at the age of 18 performing the music of J.S. Bach with the Bermuda Chamber Orchestra in Hamilton, Bermuda and has since performed in Austria, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, and throughout New England. He holds awards from the Presser Foundation and the Bay Chamber Concerts (Rockport, ME), where he was recently honored with the Ezra Rachlin Prize for Excellence.

He has performed as principal flute with the Trentino Festival Orchestra, the Longy Conservatory Orchestra, the Gordon College Symphony Orchestra, and the Bangor Symphony Orchestra. During the summers, he has held a flute fellowship to the Trentino Opera Festival in northern Italy and studied at the Mozarteum University of Salzburg, Austria. He also participated in the Kneisel Hall Young Musician’s Program in Blue Hill, ME for four consecutive summers. An advocate for new music, Nicholas has performed with the Boston Opera Collaborative and acclaimed contemporary ensemble What is Noise.

Nicholas received his Bachelor of Arts degree Summa Cum Laude in music and French from Gordon College, where he was the first prizewinner of the 2015 Concerto Competition. He earned his Master of Music degree at Bard College’s Longy School of Music under the tutelage of Marco Granados and legendary flute pedagogue Robert Willoughby. He has performed in masterclasses for Trevor Wye, Rachel Brown, Jean Ferrandis, Samuel Coles, and Nicolas Duchamp of the Opéra de Paris.

A passionate teacher, Nicholas has worked as a teaching artist for El Sistema Somerville, teaches flute in the Ipswich Public Schools, and maintains a private studio on Boston's north shore. In July 2017, he traveled to Cap-Haitien, Haiti under the auspices of the Fulbright Association to teach flute and chamber music at the Cemuchca Institut de Musique.
