I wish the congratulate Mr. Ludovic Armin Cora for all that he achieved. He was the soul of the entire project. I want to thank all my colleagues who accepted to come and to extend my gratitude especially to Mrs. Cristina Popescu Stănesti for being there with us and deployed an extraordinary work with these wonderful children.
A major international project which I was privileged to take part in and I am glad to be given the opportunity to work with oboe students from the entire world. It has been a real challenge to work with these children from dawn till dusk. Congratulations to the organizer
I am very happy to be allowed to contribute in my capacity of professor to the success of this project. I wish to nurture a long term dialogue with decision makers within the educational system in matters regarding the Romanian Blowers School. I shall try to fully contribute to sustain the Romanian educational process. I am genuinely very interested in the evolution of this project.
