I played my first full on concert using the Legere for the entire thing. What was made apparent is with these reeds I have far more time on my hands as there's no prep to be done as you'd have to do with can reeds - it's very much a 'plug-n-play' thing.

The only things I needed were my oboe, stand, pullthrough, music and music stand and not having all the usual paraphernalia with me such as water pots, plaques, knives, pliers, PTFE tape, abrasive paper, mandrels, wire, spare reeds, ... so no more having to get to rehearsals and concert venues extra early to be sure I have all my main and back-up reeds working and sufficiently soaked.

While my chops may have given out with all the constant playing (and I wasn't the only casualty), the reed didn't let up at all and played in tune and very responsive throughout the evening.

The only note I croaked on was my top Db (in an 8ve leap from the middle Db) which was due to the high humidity levels and my LH1 tonehole having water in it which happened right at the most inopportune moment in a solo. But that was through no fault of the reed.
