Happy Birthday!!!

Hello everyone. I would just like to take a moment to wish Dr. Gregory Oakes a very happy birthday! Dr. Oakes is one of the best musicians and people I have ever had the opportunity to know and learn from. He is a tremendous player and is currently the principal clarinet of the Des Moines Symphony.

Just about a year ago he released a solo album, "New Dialects," which contains a selection of pieces inspired by non-western and folk music. Check him out!




Here is his Facebook musician's page (if you pop over, be sure to say happy birthday!)
