has abstract	Ralph Gomberg (18 de juny de 1921 - 9 de desembre de 2006) va ser l'oboista principal de l'Orquestra Simfònica de Boston durant 37 anys (1950-1987). El seu germà Harold va ocupar la mateixa càtedra amb la Filharmònica de Nova York durant gran part del mateix període (1943-1977). Ralph Gomberg va néixer al West End de Boston, Massachusetts, el més petit de set germans dotats musicalment. La família es va traslladar a Filadèlfia perquè un dels nois, Robert, pogués estudiar violí al Curtis Institute of Music, on havien escoltat que els estudiants havien estat admesos per mèrits i es van deixar sense matrícula. Als 14 anys, Gomberg també va començar a estudiar al Curtis amb el llegendari oboista Marcel Tabuteau, que també havia ensenyat al seu germà Harold. Ralph va ser l'estudiant més jove acceptat per Tabuteau. Es va graduar de Curtis, igual que quatre dels seus germans abans que ell. Als 18 anys, Gomberg es va convertir en el primer oboista de l’orquestra juvenil americà dirigida per Leopold Stokowski. Després va ser reclutat el 1941 per Eugene Ormandy per tocar a la Marina dels Estats Units a Baltimore. Després d'un any, va marxar a Los Angeles per tenir cura d'un germà malalt. Estant allà, va rebre una trucada d'un jove director de direcció de Nova York anomenat Leonard Bernstein que buscava un primer oboista per a la seva City Center Orchestra i el va contractar per telèfon. Mentre tocava a la City Center Orchestra de Nova York, Gomberg també va tocar a la Mutual Broadcasting Orchestra, va co-fundar el New York Woodwind Quintet i va co-fundar els Boston Symphony Chamber Players. El 1950 es va unir a l'Orquestra Simfònica de Boston i va ocupar la principal cadira d'oboè amb la BSO durant 37 anys abans de retirar-se. També va treballar a la facultat de la Universitat de Boston, al "New England Conservatory" i al "Tanglewood Music Center" com a professor adjunt. Molts dels seus antics estudiants actuen ara a les principals orquestres simfòniques de tot el món, incloent la Chicago Symphony, la Saint Louis Symphony, la San Francisco Symphony, la Toronto Symphony, lOrquestra Simfonica de Barcelona, els Boston Pops i la Israel Philharmonic. Va morir als 85 anys en un hospici de Massachusetts, d'esclerosi lateral primària. La seva dona, Sydelle, era directora de la Boston Ballet School, l'escola de la Boston Ballet Company. (ca) Ralph Gomberg (June 18, 1921 – December 9, 2006) was the principal oboist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra for 37 years (1950-1987). His brother Harold held the same chair with the New York Philharmonic for much of the same period (1943-1977). Ralph Gomberg was born in the West End of Boston, Massachusetts, the youngest of seven musically gifted siblings. The family decamped to Philadelphia so that one of the boys, Robert, could study violin at the Curtis Institute of Music where they had heard students were admitted on merit and went tuition-free. At age 14, Gomberg also started studying at the Curtis with legendary oboist Marcel Tabuteau, who had also taught his brother Harold. Ralph was the youngest student ever accepted by Tabuteau. He went on to graduate from Curtis, as had four of his siblings before him. At age 18, Gomberg became the first oboist in the All-American youth orchestra directed by Leopold Stokowski. He was then recruited in 1941 by Eugene Ormandy to play for the US Navy in Baltimore. After a year of this, he left for Los Angeles to care for an ill brother. While there, he received a call from a young conductor in New York named Leonard Bernstein who was looking for a first oboist for his City Center Orchestra and hired him on the phone. While playing for the City Center Orchestra in New York, Gomberg also played for the Mutual Broadcasting Orchestra, co-founded the New York Woodwind Quintet, and co-founded the Boston Symphony Chamber Players. In 1950 he joined the Boston Symphony Orchestra and held the principal oboe chair with the BSO for 37 years before retiring. He also served on the faculty of Boston University, New England Conservatory, and Tanglewood Music Center as an Adjunct Professor. Many of his former students now perform in leading symphony orchestras around the world including the Chicago Symphony, Saint Louis Symphony, San Francisco Symphony, Toronto Symphony, Orquestra Simfonica de Barcelona, the Boston Pops, and Israel Philharmonic. He died at age 85 in a hospice in Massachusetts of primary lateral sclerosis. His wife, Sydelle, was Director of the Boston Ballet School, the school of Boston Ballet Company. (en)
