Re: 1962 Boston/Munch Symphonie Fantastique

Oboe player is Ralph Gomberg. What a wonderful performance -- I think this was the golden age of the Boston Symphony! I had the honor of playing the Eb clarinet in a performance of the Fantastique with Munch at Tanglewood in '56 -- it was a life-changing experience.

Roger Voisin ( a wonderful gentleman) was far from being the World's loudest trumpet player, but his characteristic vibrato may have made him the most recognizable! Other notables include Rosario Mazzeo playing assistant 2nd clarinet, concertmaster Richard Burgin, harpist Bernard Zighera, 2nd clarinet Manny Valerio, Jimmy Stagliano playing principal horn, Vic Firth, tympani.
