On the cover: Harold Gomberg, long-time first oboist of the New York Philharmonic, was also an accomplished painter. His works often show the sunny colors of his beloved Italy, and the painting on the cover is no exception. Easily discerned are figures of an oboist and a harpist. The work was presented to Dan Stolper by Margaret Brill Gomberg for his personal collection, and as a memento to be shared with the I.D.R.S. membership. We thank her for her thoughtfulness.
