> So if you don't have the time ... why suffer?

If I don't have the time, why do I play the oboe at all? Part of what I realized in thinking about reed making as performance is that I enjoy making something out of cane, tube and thread that can turn breath into beautiful sounds. Playing the oboe is challenging, reed making is challenging--I do them both for the satisfaction of trying to make something beautiful in spite of the challenges.
