Subj: [DR-L] Re: 21 yr old Elizabeth Koch, Curtis dropout=ASO Principal Oboe

Regarding Elizabeth's Koch quitting Curtis to become principle oboe of
the Atlanta Symph (see article:)
http://www.accessatlanta.com/arts/content/arts/stories/2007/06/12/0613alvoboe.html
So this student of R. Woodhams is turning in her Yamaha oboe for the
Loree- the article bit about the Cleveland Sound vs the Philadelphia
sound (and the Tabuteau family tree of players) should spark some
comment here- the article implies that the oboe change was done to
conform to the sound of the instrument used by the former principle (J
Douhly). I find this ironic as the "Philadelphia sound through Tabuteau
orginally was based on Loree instruments and now Woodhams plays a
Yamaha- (-8
