Heidrun Dagmar Paulus b. Geckeler (* 1961 in Balingen ) is a German flautist , composer and music teacher.

Live and act

Heidrun Paulus received musical training at an early age (flute, piano and organ with KMD Gerhard Rehm, Balingen), but only got into professional music after professional detours. Her artistic training encompasses the fields of recorder, flute, piano and harpsichord, with regular training and master classes with, among others, Aurèle Nicolet (flute), Günther Höller (recorder) and Oscar Milani (harpsichord).

In Balingen she was a member of a wind quintet (directed by Uli Molsen ) and a teacher at the youth music school in Balingen. Since 1983 she has been married to Bernd Paulus, a computer scientist and hobby writer, with whom she carried out several projects. Initially living in Karlsruhe , she began teaching in the same year (initially recorder and transverse flute) and gave concerts on a regular basis. In 1989 she moved to Hagenbach ( Germersheim district / Rhineland-Palatinate ). In the same year she founded the private music school Heidrun Paulus, where she taught the subjects of recorder, flute and, since 1996, piano. In 1989 she was also commissioned to take over basic musical training at the Leimersheim Music Association, where she offered early musical education for children of kindergarten age, as well as soprano and alto recorder courses for children of elementary school age, each with its own concepts. At her own request, she left there in 2011. Her main focus, however, lies in her lively concert activity as a recorder and flutist in various casts and, since 2017, also as a piano accompanist, especially klezmer music together with clarinet.

Together with her husband, she performed several of her own children's theater pieces (1996: Children of Europe, 2000: Reise durch das Universum, 2002: The everyday worries of famous composers (text and music each Bernd and Heidrun Paulus)) and already in 1991: Die Märchenpost (by Margarete Bender-Streit) and 1992: The Pied Piper of Hameln (by Barbara Schwindt). Own musical productions followed: in 2012 the singspiel “Die Stadtmadam” and in 2014 “Der verliebte Trommler” (text and direction Bernd Paulus, composition, arrangements and musical direction Heidrun Paulus).

Her compositional work includes works for flute solo, flute and piano, as well as vocals, instrumental parts and piano and various arrangements.

Several CDs have been released since 1997.
