Described as "a primal, at times ecstatic state of Fauvist force..." (Gramophone Magazine), Richard Craig has developed a distinctive approach to the flute, collaborating with composers to develop new works for the instrument. Born in Glasgow, he studied at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland with Richard Blake, and then with support from the Dewar Art Awards and the Scottish International Education Trust, at the Conservatoire de Strasbourg with Mario Caroli.

Richard has performed with groups such as Musikfabrik, Klangforum Wien, ELISION and Scandinavian groups CAPUT, Kammarensemblen, and with the UK ensembles Ensemble Octandre, Explore Ensemble and Apartment House. As well as a performer, Richard is an improviser and composer and has worked alongside Barry Guy, Angharad Davies, Rhodri Davies and a founder member of Glasgow Improvisers Orchestra. Richard is currently co-principal flute of the Riot Ensemble.

As a recording artist, he has two solo discs, Vale and Inward, and recorded for Another Timbre, Wergo, FHR, Métier, as well as numerous live recordings for SWR, 大象传媒 and Finnish Radio. Richard is currently a Lecturer and Director of Performance at the University of Edinburgh. Upcoming projects include a release of Telemann Fantasias/Improvisations on the Ulysses Arts Label, and further collaborations with soprano Stephanie Lamprea, and PNEUMA with organist Michael Bonaventure.
