Cor anglais player Miriam Pastor Burgos | Concertgebouworkest

Born in Cartagena, Spain, Miriam Pastor Burgos studied oboe with Paco Valero at the Murcia Conservatory from 2003 to 2007. She went on to study with Dominik Wollenweber at the Hans Eisler Hochschule für Musik in Berlin from 2007 to 2012.
She gained orchestral experience as a member of the Karajan Academy, the orchestra academy of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, and was a member of both the Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra and the European Union Youth Orchestra.
In Berlin, Miriam Pastor Burgos was principal cor anglais with the Konzerthausorchester (2010-2011) and principal oboist at the Komische Oper (2011-2012). Between 2009 and 2014, she was a member of Orchestra Mozart under Claudio Abbado and she regularly works with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra.
She performed as a substitute with many orchestras, including the Berliner Philharmoniker and the Concertgebouworkest.
Since September 2012, Pastor Burgos is the Concertgebouworkest's cor anglais player.
She is a lecturer at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam since December 2015.
Since 2013 Miriam plays an alto oboe built by Marigaux in Paris, from the collection of the Foundation Concertgebouworkest. In addition, she also received a hobo from Marigaux in 2019. She is happy with her reed cutting machine to make reeds faster and more accurate.

Thank you for these inspiriting interviews. I love symphonic music and am always fascinated about orchestra members and their experience with each other, with the music and with conductors with whom they work. I love listening to the Concertgebouw...

I love the english horn......just listen to Mahlers "Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen". Thank you Miriam for making this come to live!

I understand your feelings about playing. Good things happen when you play great music with great people for years or decades. English horn reaches into people's minds, straight into emotions without words. My favorite English horn features are Steppes of Central Asia by Borodin, and Quiet City by Aaron Copland. You play beautifully. Bravo!
