Myron Bloom, French Horn Player Who Helped Mold The Cleveland Orchestra, Has Died At 93

Bloom “was horn royalty. As Szell’s principal horn in Cleveland for more than two decades, he appeared on many of the orchestra’s celebrated recordings, and was the soloist in its classic account of the Horn Concerto No. 1 by Richard Strauss. He later became principal horn of the Orchestre de Paris under the conductor Daniel Barenboim, and an influential teacher.” – The New York Times
