Michele Fiala
Michele Fiala has performed throughout the United States, Italy, England,

Light Wraps You (MSR
Classics) has received international critical acclaim. Carla Rees in MusicWeb
International spoke of “Fiala’s expressive oboe playing,” and wrote that
“The oboe sound is rich and warm…the playing is excellent, and the musical
ideas are communicated well.” Jeanne
Belfy, in The Double Reed, called the CD “a classy affair from
start to finish” and said, “…the interpretations are elegant…Fiala’s tone is
light, mellow and flexible.” A reviewer from the Salt Lake Tribune spoke of her
“energy and buoyant playing.” Michele also appears on recordings on Centaur,
Equilibrium, and d'Note Records.
