<<... in band or orchestra, the oboe routinely gets all sorts of cool solos that clarinetists can only dream about ... clarinets are, for better or worse, part of the musical wallpaper ...>>
Oh, that's very helpful perspective on routine oboe solos in band music, i was wondering if i was getting more solo work in band because the director wants to find out if i'm actually playing or just faking it -- my tone is a lot softer than it was at the beginning, and our brasswind section is so dynamically enthusiastic
... as for the clarinets being musical wallpaper, in our band they seem to get a lot of cool stuff to play, while i often find i'm wallpapering with flute, clarinet, trumpet or A-sax
