Victor McMahon

[2] Among the professional flautists he taught were Don Burrows, Margaret Crawford, Linda Vogt, Jane Rutter, Peter Richardson,[1] Geoffrey Collins,[3] and Mark Underwood.

[5][6] Victor McMahon was born in Ballarat, Victoria in 1903, the same small country town as another flute virtuoso, John Lemmone.

[9] In 1939, McMahon conducted a flute band of 300 performers led by "Master Don Burrows" at a public schools charity concert.

On 10 May 1992, the Australian Chamber Orchestra performed a Concerto for Flute and Strings that it had commissioned from Anne Boyd and which she dedicated to McMahon.

McMahon's students all played a modern Boehm flute even though it has a different fingering system from their teacher's.
