James Brown

British classical woodwind instrumentalist (oboe and cor anglais/English horn), and Professor of Oboe. Born April 12 1929 - Died October 8 in 2012 at age 83. His recording career was most active during the 1960s and 1970s. Professor of Oboe at the Royal College of Music, London (1964-1995). Not to be confused with the British French Horn (brass instrument) player James W. Brown (2) who, at least once, appeared on the same LP on which James Brown (10) played oboe (the "W." may have been a one-off use of the letter to distinguish the two players).
