Oboist Michael Stowe, prize-winner, first class graduate (Guildhall 2019), entered the music profession when the 2020 covid pandemic shut down all avenues of employment - with one exception. Peter Fisher, director of the Chamber Ensemble of London, had three recording sessions booked at the Henry Wood Hall and offered to squeeze Michael in as a soloist if there was any time spare. Re-using themes from an old oboe concerto, I hastily wrote three very short oboe solos on the understanding that not all might be recorded. Fortunately, all three were! Clive Jenkins
