Thanks for the reply.
What you said about getting a teacher resonnates with advice some pros. gave me : play in ensembles if only for the regular rehearsals. This will motivate more regular practice. Furthermore, ensemble playing usually has shorter playing stints and more breaks for the lips to get the blood flowing again.
How many minutes/hours are you up to now? How long did it take to get there?
I have found that advice given to use soft / easy reeds (as opposed to hard and/OR chokey) not only allows me to play longer and/or more often in the same day, it also seems to help muscles gain strenght more quickly. BUT I haven't been experimenting long, so more time is needed to confirm this.
Thanks and please tell more about your story ---- I'm asking everyone who is reading this, oboist or otherwise.
