Linda Vogt
Edit ProfileCareer
She joined the MSO in 1940 as "extra flute"—an unusual appointment due to her lack of conservatorium training. In 1942, she joined the American Broadcasting Company Sydney Studio Orchestra, which would later become the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. She also instigated the creation of the Register of Historic Flutes with Robert Brown.
In 1976, she founded Zephyr Music, a sheet music supply company which became a successful family business.
