Miles and I were friends and I got several flutes and piccolos from him. We also had some really nice times together. Once when we had a double reed conference here in Las Vegas, Miles was here and performed the Villa-Lobos bassoon/flute duet. I always thought of him as a piccolo player, but when I heard his performance of this piece I realized that besides being a friend, he was a world class flute player!

Anne, I only heard about Miles passing this past week at the NFA convention in Minneapolis (Aug. 10th). I was devastated and saddened. I cannot imagine a world without Miles. He was a great friend, an excellent flute student at IU and such a fine Piccolo player. I shall miss his unusual phone conversations.
I tried calling you via the old phone number, and I have no way of
contacting you. Please do call me sometime.

I never met Mr Zentner but I listened him playing in Florence (Italy) withe the LA Phil. From that moment I listened all the recording where I can learn a lot from his playing. RIP, Maestro!
