Mozart/Strauss: Oboe Concertos (CD review)
Cristina Gomez Godoy, oboe; Daniel Barenboim, West-Eastern Divan Orchestra. Warner Classics 0190295077600.By John J. PuccioIt’s true the oboe takes something of a backseat when it comes to being the featured instrument in a concerto, but there have been a surprising number of such concertos since the introduction of the oboe in the mid seventeenth century. Composers like Albinoni, Bach, Handel, Scarlatti, Telemann, Vivaldi, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Weber, R. Strauss, plus a perhaps surprising plethora of more-modern composers have all contributed to the genre. On the current disc, oboist Cristina Gomez Godoy, conductor Daniel Barenboim, and the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra offer two popular examples of their kind, one from Mozart and a later one from Richard Strauss.First, though, a word about the performers. Ms. Godoy is a Spanish oboist who made her recital debut at Carnegie Hall, New York and Pierre Boulez Saal, Berlin in 2019. According to her Web site, “for […]

Mr. Obama’s Tango Partner: I wasn’t Supposed To Ask Him To Dance
Godoy said jokingly that the president asked her repeatedly during the dance “When does this end?” but relaxed when he saw his wife enjoying herself as she simultaneously tangoed with Godoy’s partner. “When he saw Michelle, he said, ‘Okay, I’ll keep going.’”

[…] The Second Part provided continuous pleasure. Mozart´s only Oboe Concerto, K.314, at Salzburg when he was 21 for a young Italian player of the Camerata, Giuseppe Ferlendis. This lovely creation was later transcribed for flute as the composer´s Second Concerto for that instrument. I personally prefer the oboe´s touching color.
