Hi mjf,
For Ginger Ramsey try: ginger@oboes.com
Josef instruments: BEWARE
Josef brought 4 instruments to the 2008 IDRS Converntion in Provo, a student oboe, a professional oboe, an oboe d'amore, and an English horn.
I did not play the student oboe. The oboe d'amore, though possessed of an exceeedingly tiny voice, was absolutely superb in every respect.
The professional oboe and the English horn were- to try to put it diplomatically- terrible, truly bad, awful. Stuffy, the merest semblance of a scale, and voicing anomalies galore. I tried many different makes of bocal on the English horn (Dallas, Loree H, Chudnow, and Hiniker bocals) without the slightest hint of improvement. All of the instruments were adjusted well. I can not believe that a major maker would have dared to exhibit such miserable excuses for instruments. This was not only my opinion, this was a unamimous consensus among tall the people I spoke with who had tried the Josef instruments in Provo.
With best wishes,
Peter
