When we hear the music of Tim Wheater, something stirs deep inside us. Something powerful evoking emotions, stirring memories and healing. This dynamic impact is the result of a lifelong journey, a marriage combining exceptional experience as a musician with a shaman's knowledge of the healing effect of music.
Unwavering in his insights on the power of music to penetrate our souls, Tim approaches his music -- whether composing, performing, recording, producing or lecturing on its healing abilities -- with the respect and wonder of a child and the clear intent that only a true virtuoso attempts.
A prodigy born to the flute in his native England, Tim studied at the Guildhall School of Music in London. News of his brilliance reached across the English Channel to Paris where the French government provided a scholarship to study with such musical notables as Marcel Moyse, Jean-Pierre Rampal and Roger Bourdin. His formal education then led him to New York where he studied solo technique at the Eastman School with one of the world's greatest wind instrument masters, James Galway.
Returning to his homeland, his performing career began in earnest with appearances with the London and Birmingham Symphony Orchestras and with notable ensembles led by conductors Simon Rattle and Sir Adrian Bolt, among others. He also played at musical events throughout Europe with his former teacher, James Galway.
Yet in the early 1980s, this brilliant, world-class flautist with classical training made a move which foreshadowed his eclectic musical insights and evolving career direction. Joining Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart, Tim became a founding member of the alternative rock band, Eurythmics. Over the next three years he played keyboards and wind instruments for the band, while learning first-hand the thrill of successful recording and the rigors of performance touring on both sides of the Atlantic.
