Very sorry to learn about this. I worked with Loren for about five years in the ’90s. He was also a founding member of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and, for many years, one of the two or three most influential “contractors” for hiring free-lance classical musicians in NY City.
I believe Loren was also one of Stokowski’s first calls for the pickup “His Symphony Orchestra” when East coast sessions were planned.
R.I.P., Maestro Glickman.
Yes, what a wonderful bassoonist and individual!
