Veronika Vitazkova

I am a professional flutist based in Vienna and I enjoy conveying my love of music through different genres, styles and woodwind instruments from all over the world. It is a joy to introduce traditional half forgotten instruments on an international stage and to inspire and bring new knowledge to my audience. My video playing Slovak folk instruments, Fujara and Koncovka, went viral soon after its publication, garnering over a million views in a short period. I also work as a flexible classical musician, regularly invited to play and tour with prominent ensembles and conductors such as the Wiener Volksoper Orchester, the Vienna Chamber Orchestra, and the late Ennio Morricone. I have a passion for recording, bringing a new energy to numerous film scores and soundtracks (for ex., Netflix, Sony and BBC) both as a solo and orchestral musician. Due to the Covid-19 situation, I built a new home studio where I work as a remote session musician and teach my students.
