 Hi.  I need some suggestions.  I am just starting on a Yamaha 241 oboe and a Marlin Lesher medium reed.  Intonation is definitely challenging, but I have a specific problem going from G above the staff up one deep to A.  It comes out as a G# unless I blow very hard compared to G.  The G# using the pinky key is fine.  I am using the T2 octave key for the A.
 
 Is this typical?  Or do I have a reed issue or a technical problem with the oboe?
 
 Thanks in advance,
 Jim
