 Re: A reed playing too sharp?

Robin,

Maybe with a heavy German type reed - "a biting embouchure" is required since the reed will not go sharp or out or pitch with the firmness (bite). The German Oboist as we have seen on The YouTube masterclass - work very hard making those reeds work and yet have great intonation.

On a lighter American scraped reed with a thinner gouge etc ... I don't think it would work in the same manner.

I have never played on a German reed and all my information is anecdotal - so.........

Mark
