Barry Solomon

I studied under John Wolfe (BBCSO), have been Principal Oboe of the Helios Chamber Orchestra, Co-Principal Oboe and Principal Cor Anglais of the London International Orchestra, and am a freelance performer in solo, chamber and other orchestral settings on the oboe, oboe d'amore and cor anglais, as well as the exceptionally rare bass oboe and musette. I also sing and play in the Rivers of Babylon, a group of singers and instrumentalists who specialise in the religious and secular music of the Iraqi (Babylonian) Jewish tradition. My musical appearances have taken me around the world with performances throughout the UK, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
