So, so far no one actually confirms the "blown-in" effects except me, perhaps.
I thought my overhauled old Rigoutat was "blown-out", specifically blown sharp about a quarter tone, according to a well known repair tech. After a year of playing on it. It came back. Not just to me. To any oboe player playing on it. I remember my students used to tell me that my oboe plays easier than theirs even though they have more expensive brands. Most of my students' oboes were actually better: better intonation and playability in every sense. They use to say that oboes may be like horses, they need to be "blown-in" like wild horses need to be tamed.
Anyone has similar experience?
