Giulio Briccialdi was an Italian virtuoso flautist and composer, a technical innovator on his instrument and a professor of music. Briccialdi, known as “the Paganini of the flute,” was a remarkable virtuoso who toured Europe as a soloist and was responsible for several technical improvements to the flute—now standard features on the instrument. He ultimately settled in Florence and taught at the Florence Conservatory.
