Helen Campo

Helen Campo, in a review by the South China Morning Post, was described as having “such dazzlingly beautiful tone that she could only be called extraordinary . . . she displayed stunning lucidity, colour, and figuration.” Leonard Bernstein wrote, “Miss Campo plays the flute the way I wish I could sing.” Since her debut at the age of 14, Helen has made more than 1000 solo appearances, from concertos with the Philadelphia Orchestra to solo performances with orchestras at Carnegie Hall, Kennedy Center, and Lincoln Center, to guest television appearances with the Muppets, and she remains the youngest flutist ever to win The Concert Artists Guild International Competition. As an orchestral player, Helen also won the position of Associate Principal Flutist with the Houston Symphony, has performed as Assistant Principal with the Baltimore Symphony and has been, over many years, a substitute with the NYC Ballet, NYC Opera, and NY Philharmonic, having performed in the Principal Flute, Second Flute, and Piccolo positions with all three organizations. Helen can also be heard on many television commercials and films, has performed with Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Michael Jackson, and others, and has held the Principal Flute position of ten Broadway shows (currently Wicked). She also loves to teach flute students of all levels.
