Ludmila Peterková (born September 16, 1967 in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic) is a Czech clarinetist.

From the age of 7 she started to play the recorder, but later changed to clarinet. In 1983-1988 she studied at Prague Conservatory; since the age of 27 she has been working there as a professor. In the course of her studies she won a lot of musical competitions, e.g. Mozart Competition at Bertramka in Prague. During her university studies at Academy of Performing Arts in Prague she cooperated mostly with chamber ensembles. In 1992-1993 she studied at Conservatoire de Paris under Michel Arrignon. Her collaboration with Prague Philharmonia as solo clarinetist lasted from 1994 to 1997. Since 1998 she has devoted herself exclusively to chamber and solo performances. During her career she cooperated with a number of artists, including conductors Vladimir Ashkenazy, Jiří Bělohlávek, Gerd Albrecht, violinist Josef Suk, clarinetist Sharon Kam among others.
