Peter-Lukas Graf

Peter-Lukas Graf (5 January 1929 – 31 December 2025) was a Swiss flutist.

Graf was born in Zürich, Switzerland on 5 January 1929. He was a pupil of André Jaunet, and later attended the Paris Conservatoire, where he won first prize with Marcel Moyse and Roger Cortet. Besides playing the flute both in orchestras and as a soloist, he was a conductor, and spent several years exclusively as an orchestra and opera conductor. He was also a teacher, and taught at the Basel Music Academy since 1973 and at the Music Academy Accademia Lorenzo Perosi in Biella. Graf played at James Galway's wedding in May 1972. In 2005 Graf received an honorary doctorate from the Academy of Music in Kraków.

The asteroid (5856) Peluk was named after him.

Graf died on 31 December 2025, five days before his 97th birthday.

Graf made many recordings in his career.
