Wow....this is great! I thought I was the only one that has had a 30-year hiatus. I have a VERY old Cabart (open hole, automatic octave) and it does need some work (pads, corks, etc). But it still sounds great. However, I've ordered a new oboe so I'm pretty excited about it. The new one is a resonite oboe with all the bells and whistles that my old one doesn't have (3rd octave, left F, F resonance, Bb resonance). Eventually, I hope to find an adult community band or orchestra to play in. I played for 11 years before stopping. Hopefully, I'll get some of that "oomph" back (with practice ofcourse).
Just wanted to chime in.
