Katherine Needleman, principal oboe of the Baltimore Symphony, has asked us to share news of the theft of her instrument in Montreal.

A  month ago, we reporteda similar loss suffered by the New York player, Ron Cohen Mann. It could be that some criminal is stealing oboes to order. Katherine’s Yamaha was taken on Tuesday as she and her family were checking out of a Montreal hotel.

    Katherine plays Yamaha I believe. All I can say is I feel sorry for the thief.

    To Haught Boy: Is it necessary to be so rude in public?

    Moderator: please remove his uncalled for, snotty and unfriendly comment.

    This thief sounds pretty slick.
    Anyone know how much he charges for one oboe heist? There is an oboe in New York that needs to be stolen.

    Hey there, Haughty. Grow up and go learn stuff before throwing in your pathetic two cents worth. Do you know what it’s like for a musician to lose a beloved instrument to scummy thieves, uh? Can you do 20 per cent of what Ms Needleman? If not, then shut up.
