Stephen Preston, born in 1945 in the United Kingdom, is a flautist specializing in period performance of baroque and classical music on original instruments. His professional career began while studying at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where he co-founded the Galliard Trio in 1966. Preston developed an interest in historical music performance practice, teaching himself to play the baroque and classical flute. He went on to found several leading period-instrument ensembles in London during the 1970s. His prolific recording career includes works such as Bach's complete flute sonatas with Trevor Pinnock, Vivaldi's op.10 flute concertos with The Academy of Ancient Music, and orchestral suite in B minor with The English Concert.
