Paul Wetzger

Paul Wetzger (1870-1937) was a German flautist and composer, born in Dahme, near Lübeck. At a young age, he took violin lessons from the local music director, later switching to the flute. By 15 years of age, Wetzger had played his first concert in the main church of Dahmen and was the second flautist of the municipal orchestra. He later became solo flautist with the municipal orchestra of Essen and taught at the Essen Conservatory. He wrote numerous pieces for flute and several chamber music works, editing works by the French composer/flautist, Jules Demersseman.

Wetzger’s composition “Am Waldesbach” (By the Forest Brook), ideally for flute and orchestra or piano, became a staple of celebrated flautist Marcel Moyse, recorded by him in 1935 on the French Columbia label. Since then, it has become a favourite in the flute teaching repertory, perhaps most notably included in Toshio Takahashi’s famous Suzuki Flute Method. This Southern Music edition faithfully captures the essence of this classic piece, performed by the living legend of the flute, Sir James Galway.
