Dear Friends,
When the Minnesota Orchestra traveled to Havana for their historic concerts in May, members of the oboe section met and worked with students of a remarkable colleague there. Lauren Rios Hernandez is a member of the Orquesta Sinfonica Nacional de Cuba and has a large oboe studio at the Escuela Nacional de Arte, (The Music High School of Havana).
Lauren’s students play with great skill and dedication, despite imperfect instruments and a lack of oboe supplies. She would like to give them experience on an English horn, but they don’t have one — and have no possibility of buying an instrument.
We have located a used Loree English horn, offered by RDG Woodwinds, Los Angeles, at a generous reduced price of $7,400.
We are very grateful to Nancy Huang, the President of RDG Woodwinds, Los Angeles, for her assistance. This instrument is so good that Marni has played it on stage! We are determined to raise the money to purchase it for Lauren.
We hope you can help!
John Snow, Julie Gramolini Williams and Marni Hougham, the Minnesota Orchestra oboe section; Paula DeCosse, amateur oboist and friend of the Minnesota Orchestra
