Lauris Davis
Principal Oboe
Lauris Davis started on trumpet in high school and dreamed of being the next Miles or Wynton, but after graduating and getting braces, the dream faded along with her embouchure. Not yet knowing the life-long drama of reed making, Lauris decided to play the oboe.
Together, Lauris and her trusty oboe got through UBC and the Vancouver Academy of Music and started freelancing throughout BC. In 2011, Lauris won the Principal Oboe position with the Okanagan Symphony Orchestra and hasn’t looked back since.
When avoiding practicing and making reeds, Lauris can be found playing with clay or wandering aimlessly on the beach communing with nature!
