Karena, don't feel bad. I sit next to ONE oboe in my wind ensemble and there
are lots of times I can't even hear myself! Have you considered that the
oboists may not be sensitive to dynamics? That is, they're playing TOO LOUD. I
love the oboe, but the instrument can be very piercing. I don't know too many
clarinetists who could compete volume-wise with a gaggle of oboes...
