MODERN AND HISTORICAL WINDS

Fiona Last Oboe

From Renaissance polyphony to 21st-century compositions, oboist Fiona Last is always seeking out new instruments to play and new musical idioms through which to express herself. Her interest in early instruments stems from the belief that we all seek to mine the most potential possible from the music that we play, and that understanding a musical style through the instrument for which it was written and vice-versa can bring a special kind of life to music-making. 

This year brings a season as principal oboe with the English Touring Opera, performances of The Comedy of Errors at Shakespeare's Globe, a recording with I Fagiolini, and concerts with The Gabrieli Consort and Players, Oxford Bach Soloists, The City Musick, and the Hanover Band.
