Still is known internationally primarily through her 20-plus recordings that have garnered unanimous praise: \u201cimpeccable in technique and taste, seductive in phrasing\u201d (Stephensen Classical C D Guide). \u201cStill plays … so convincingly I cannot separate her from the music\u201d (American Record Guide), \u201cwhatever she plays sounds musical in every turn of the phrase\u201d (Gramophone), \u201ca stunning showcase for the astonishing Alexa Still\u201d (Fanfare).<\/p>\n

At age 23, she went back home as principal flute of the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. Other awards include a Churchill Fellowship and a Fulbright.<\/p>\n

Still left the orchestra to devote more time to solo engagements and teaching, first at the University of Colorado at Boulder then the Sydney Conservatorium of Music where she was also director of performance research.
