Mourning for Dutch oboist, 85
mainHeinz Friesen, solo oboist of the Brabant orchestra (1961-66) and the Rotterdam Philharmonic (1966-89), has died.
He was oboe professor at The Hague Conservatoire, a composer and a prolific conductor, mostly of wind ensembles.
The music heard is from the t-bone concerto by Johan de Meij, played by Christan Lindberg with Symphonic Wind Orchestra St. Michaël of Thorn, conductor Heinz Friesen.
Not to diminish the passing of Mr. Friesen, but how come you have yet to report on the death of major composer/arranger Theo Verbey?
