George Louis Houle (Nov. 21, 1927 – Jan. 7, 2017) By Glenna Mount Houle George Houle was born in Pasadena, CA, and spent his early life there. From the age of 13, he studied oboe with the principal oboist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Henri de Busscher. He first went to Stanford University in 1949, when he was hired to play oboe for a Music Department opera and then was offered a music scholarship in lieu of payment. He received bachelor’s, master’s, and Ph.D. degrees and studied with Putnam Aldrich and Leonard Ratner. He married Constance Crawford in 1952. They had four children and divorced in 1967. After teaching general music courses at Mills College and the universities of Colorado and Minnesota, he returned to Stanford in 1962 and began to build a program in the performance of early music. He learned to play and teach baroque oboe, recorders, and other early wind instruments. Professor Houle believed that it was necessary to understand the rhythms of Renaissance and Baroque dances in order to play them well, so he and his students learned to dance. His strong belief in uniting the performance of music with its history and theory remained a cornerstone of his academic career. Under his direction, many students were awarded the Doctor of Musical Arts (DMA) degree in the performance practice of early music.
