I was just about brought to tears last year at the Baltimore Symphony New Music Festival last year. Your piece was so deep. I wish that I could describe what I had seen to the people that I know and found no words to say what I had experienced. Your description helps but I so so wish that I could see and hear this with them some time in the future. Will this ever be repeated? PS. My son graduated from the Baltimore School For The Arts. He is an oboist and will be attending the Manhattan School of Music in the fall. We are excited about your oboe concerto which will be played this Saturday. We are big fans of Katherine Needleman. All the best. Steve Windows
