Karen Birch Blundell

Welcome! I'm a professional oboist with over 25 years of experience performing with orchestras and chamber ensembles. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of mentoring hundreds of young musicians and leading educational programs for audiences of all ages.

I believe in the power of music to connect, inspire, and enrich lives, and I’m committed to sharing the beauty of the oboe with as many people as possible. Whether you're looking for a performance, private lessons, or an engaging community outreach event, I’d love to work with you to create a memorable musical experience.

I'm excited to announce that I'll be returning to Greensboro, NC this summer as a faculty member at the Eastern Festival of Music.
