Liang Wang, principal oboist of the NY Philharmonic, studied with Richard Woodhams at Curtis, and Woodhams was a student of John de Lancie, also at Curtis.
Walter Damrosch's decision to pay enough to lure French wind and brass players to the NY Symphony had a major impact on wind playing in the U.S. In addition to Marcel Tabuteau, Damrosch brought in flutist Georges Barrere, who quickly became the leading flute teacher in the U.S. Barrere retired from the NYSO when it merged with the NY Philharmonic in 1928 but his students included William Kincaid, John Wummer and Maurice Sharp. Kincaid's students included Julius Baker and Joseph Mariano.
