About

Thomas Stacy is widely known through his recordings, television appearances and as cor anglais player with the New York Philharmonic. He also has a passion for playing the English horn’s smaller relative, the oboe d’amore.

Many listeners will recognize the distinctive sound of the oboe d’amore from having heard it in Bach’s B Minor Mass, St Matthew Passion, where it is used in pairs, or in Ravel’s Bolero. Hearing this instrument solo in these beautiful concerti may be a new experience for some. Telemann and Bach used the instrument brilliantly, requiring agile virtuosity in the fast movements and in the long lines of the heart-tugging slow movements, they made splendid show of the oboe d’amore’s uniquely plaintive timbre.” – Thomas Stacy
