Re: He Was an Oboist First

There's a very scratchy recording on YouTube of The Swan of Tuonela by Leopold Stokowski and "His Orchestra," crediting the English horn solo to Mitchell Miller http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5B9i38iDrVk.

However, it's played on alto sax, not English horn. Listen particularly at 2:54. I play both sax and oboe, and the sax tone and way of moving from one note to the next are unmistakable. I never heard that Mitch Miller played sax, though he may have. Anybody know?
