Every flutist knows who Linda Mark is. And yet, there is not much information out there on this pianist's beginnings. When she moved to New York after college she did the grunt work of knocking on doors, making cold calls, and asking teachers if they needed a pianist for their studio. That’s exactly how she met Julius Baker and his mentoring, teaching, and inclusiveness of her would end up shaping her career. After earning a reputation for being a natural with challenging flute repertoire, Linda was introduced to and has worked with every great performer in the flute community.
