A captivating biography of the most influential oboist of the 20th century

Laila Storch is a world-renowned oboist in her own right, but her book honors Marcel Tabuteau, one of the greatest figures in twentieth-century music. Tabuteau studied the oboe from an early age at the Paris Conservatoire and was brought to the United States in 1905, by Walter Damrosch, to play with the New York Symphony Orchestra. Although this posed a problem for the national musicians' union, he was ultimately allowed to stay, and the rest, as they say, is history. Eventually moving to Philadelphia, Tabuteau played in the Philadelphia Orchestra and taught at the Curtis Institute of Music, ultimately revamping the oboe world with his performance, pedagogical, and reed-making techniques.

In 1941, Storch auditioned for Tabuteau at the Curtis Institute, but was rejected because of her gender. After much persistence and several cross-country bus trips, she was eventually accepted and began a life of study with Tabuteau. Blending archival research with personal anecdotes, and including access to rare recordings of Tabuteau and Waldemar Wolsing, Storch tells a remarkable story in an engaging style.

During the time that Tabuteau was the solo oboist of the Philadelphia Orches-tra, he also taught at the Curtis Institute of Music. To his own oboe students he passed on the best elements of the French woodwind tradi-tion, at the same time establishing such new standards of ﬁnesse in or-chestral blending, variety of tone color, and nuance of phrasing that what is now known as the “American school of oboe playing,” or, more speciﬁcally, the “Tabuteau style,” has become the accepted and expected norm for oboists in all American symphony orchestras. Through his conducting of woodwind ensembles, his inuence reached the players of all other wind instruments. In later years he coached string groups and led an orchestra. Many violinists, violists, cellists, and pianists have said that they received their most valuable musical knowledge in Tabuteau’s classes at Curtis.
