Biography
He graduated from the Film Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague (FAMU). He also studied composition at the Royal Academy of Music as well as at the Prague Academy of Music (AMU),[1] and studied the flute under Milan Munclinger.
Stivín performs music from the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and the Baroque periods. As a sololist, he performed with the Prague Symphony Orchestra, with the Slovak Chamber Orchestra, with Suk Chamber Orchestra, Barocco sempre giovane as well as with several other ensembles. He is also involved in jazz, both as a performer and as a composer.

Stivín is active in the Jazz Quartet in the Czech Republic, playing both the flute and saxophone. His large discography ranges from jazz to classical music, and his nine separate CDs of suite and chamber music recordings of Georg Philipp Telemann for recorder and flute with Naxos and Supraphon labels are the most numerous of his contemporaries performing Telemann. In 2007, Stivín was awarded the Medal of Merit by President Václav Klaus for his contributions to culture and art.[4]
