We try to follow postings on Facebook with notices to put in our Reunion, In Memoriam and Etcetera sections, but we don't always see them, so please send them along also.

Fred Korman, World Renowned Oboist

I had the pleasure of attending Fred Korman's workshops at the Las Vegas Music Festival. His warmth and sincerity immediately put all the participants at ease to openly discuss and explore their inner worlds as musicians and human beings. He is a true artist, not only on the oboe, but also in crafting an effective, non-threatening atmosphere where performers can benefit from self-awareness, and sharing common experiences.
