 Re: What is to be thought of transcriptions and arrangements?
Author: Jack Kissinger

"... the Oboe still has the smallest compass of the four woodwind instruments. But into this compass is packed a telling vividness and intensity of character unapproached by any other wind instrument."

... except, perhaps, the soprano saxophone (or a similar tarogato) which has (allowing for the difference in key) virtually the same range as the oboe, a conical bore that overblows an octave, no thumb hole, a relatively small reed/mouthpiece, plateau keys and a similar timbre, probably due to the aforementioned similarities in design. Hence, I think, the relative success of the soprano sax as an ersatz oboe.

Best regards,
jnk
