Ausgeseichnet!
Thanks for the input!

If I summarize your conclusions, we seem to be in perfect agreement. Any abrupt steps in the reed do make response and tonguing easier, but contoured shapes give a more contoured sound.

As for sounds, Heinz Holliger epitomizes (in my mind) "reedy", crystalline and bright tones.... not to my taste although he was my hero for many years. My current hero is Albrecht Mayer => SHEESS, he makes a modern oboe sound baroque! Then again, if you search him on You-Tube and go through the German-language documentaries, you'll notice his sound changes drastically between time periods, when he changes instruments!

I mostly like his oboe d'amore which really combines the best qualities of the oboe and English horn... unlike many players in the past who would combine the worst features of the two.

Listen JRC, if you are capable of making stable reeds that "allow" you play rather than making you fight to play in tune and from ppp to fff, then you have absolutely nothing to envy from the rest of us!

Keep at it and PLEASE, send us your comments too!
