... lol, thanks ChrisP for patiently and thoroughly explaining that to me ... that makes sense, of course notes sound through OPEN holes, not closed ones, thunka thunka ma chunka wood (how resonant is it ???)
... interesting this C/Eb topic came up, my band director commented recently that oboe has peculiar fingering setup compared to other wind instruments, and not having learned any other covered key instruments i was baffled by that remark, oboe seems OK key setup to me, i mean after coming off recorder, oboe is cake!
are B-flat / E-flat transposing instrument key positions any easier to play in more sharps with their key setups, relatively speaking, than playing 4, 5 or more flats on concert C oboe ?!
What do converts to oboe from other instruments think about this?
