 Re: improving intonation of oboe with a technician

Howard,

I had my Marigaux tuned over the first year I played it.

The person that tuned my instrument had expertise on the Marigaux brand; even she recommends John Symer near Philadelphia USA. He's the acoustical "genius".

On my Oboe I had extensive uncutting (A) and some filling in (G) as well as work on other notes ... the result a good scale and improved timbre. Kristin Betrand http://www.woodwindworkshop.com did my work ... NYC. She also modified some key work for me.

In any event you should bring the Oboe to a repair person who has intimate knowledge of the make of your Oboe.

But don't be afraid of tone hole modification. What can be removed and always be put back!

I had some work done on my previous Loree as well by another technician. No problems.

Mark
