So I went upstairs happily to get my copy of Handel's Messiah, and along the way I wondered why I had never noticed before that it has an oboe part.
That's because it doesn't.
In the one I have, anyway. I have the Dover Alfred Mann edition miniature score, and except for a lone trumpet in "The trumpet shall sound", it's all violins, violas, cellos, and continuo.
Phooey.
