Alex Klein OBOE
  The magical city of Venice was home to several composers, all competing fiercely for attention - Vivaldi was a violin star, and Albinoni was the diva of the oboe. Legendary Grammy award-winning oboist Alex Klein brings to life the fiery oboe concertos of both composers, while Apollo’s Fire principal players join in the fray with double and triple concertos by other Italian colleagues and rivals.
“There are players, and there are miracle makers. Klein's performance placed him unquestionably in that second category, up there with the handful of great ones who can transform notes into magic.”
SEATTLE TIMES
PRE-CONCERT LECTURE: Alex Klein will be giving a pre-concert lecture one hour before each performance, sponsored by the Friends of Apollo's Fire.
