 Re: The "Flexibility" of Oboes, Tone Color, Reeds and the Player

Nice essay, Cooper! I think, as an amateur, I'm in category A. I just want to show up and play in a way that makes people say, "he has a nice tone." Because, for an amateur, that's not a bad accomplishment on oboe. (For what it's worth, I got my current chamber music gig mostly because I had a tolerable sound, whatever else I lacked in musicianship. Fortunately, I think I've had some success improving my tolerable sound and working on my other skills as well--thanks to having found a good teacher.)

Still an Amateur, but not really middle-aged anymore
