Subj: [DR-L] Quote of the Day...Wayne Rapier (1930-2005)
Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2005 19:31:22 -0400


"The oboe, like an actor, can play many roles; it can describe, narrate,
imitate, and embody; unlike most actors, and best of all, it can sing with a
voice that is pure emotion. Wayne Rapier's unusual and wide-ranging program
exhibits all those qualities of the instrument. With the help of superb
collaborators, Rapier enables the oboe to play all its roles."
