What I like so much about oboe playing is that not everyone sounds the same.

Just one factor is that every player has his or her own "personal resonance"
based on physiology. I once spent some time coaching a inner city teenage student, who weighed 400+ pounds, was playing an ancient school owned Malerne oboe in absolutely dreadful condition, and was using exceedingly run of the mill commercial reeds. Her sound was ethereal.

I do know of one oboe teacher/professor who insists that all of his students sound exactly the same as he does. If the student's tone falls short of his expectations, he will simply demand that the student "fix it."

One of my all time favorite oboe recordings is the Frantisek Hantak recording of the
Martinu Oboe Concerto. Amazingly "bright" and "reedy" ("nasal") sound to American ears, though the recording in my estimation a transcendent musical statement in every respect.

Cheers,
Peter
