Profile:Czech flutist, saxophonist, multi-instrumentalist, composer, band leader, originally cinematographer.
Born November 23, 1942 in Prague (former Czechoslovakia). 1961–1962 one of the pioneers of Czechoslovak rock music as a member of Sputnici. Founder of Jazz Q in the mid-1960s. Father of Adam Stivín, Jiří Stivín (2), Markéta Stivínová and Zuzana Stivínová; cousin of Milan Svoboda.
Stivín has been interpreting pre-classical music on the recorder since 1975. After graduating from the cinematography department of the Prague Film Academy (FAMU), he devoted himself exclusively to music. He studied at the Royal Academy of Music as well as at the Prague Academy of Music, where he studied composition. Stivín performs music from the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and the Baroque periods. He has recorded flute concertos and has mastered all kinds of flutes and recorders. He has also been intensely involved in jazz, composition, and in the improvisational New Music, using saxophone, clarinet, flute, recorder, and several kinds of folk pipes.

WE WILL ALWAYS COMBINE SHIPPING FOR MULTIPLE PURCHASES AND OFFER A DISCOUNT. PLEASE ASK FOR A QUOTE IN ADVANCE.
We post worldwide and pack all records in custom made (stiff) card mailers and add extra packaging inside to ensure a safe delivery. We will provide a protective polythene sleeve and the record and inner will be removed from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits in transit. We want your record to get to you in the condition that it was when it left us.
For any records that come with printed inner sleeves, we will also provide an additional plain inner.
We use the Record Collector's Grading system for grading the condition of the vinyl:
RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
