Posted Sep 7, 09:45 AM
On August 29, 2007, Romanian-American scholar Ioana Sherman delivered DUMIC’s new Romanian instruments made by Ion Costache. The instruments include a double fluier, a large fluier, three small fluiers, a caval, a pai, and an ocarina. These instruments can be seen in the current online exhibit and will soon be on display in the upper lobby of the Biddle Music Building. The instruments were obtained and transported by Sherman. Two instruments were the generous gifts of Mr. Costache and the purchase of the other six instruments was made possible through the support of the Carrabina Endowment, with generous assistance from Duke alumni Dr.s George & Sue Neece.
