"Well i believe that most of the orcastral jobs being won in the US is oboe players from Europe
I am sorry but this is just not true. Chicago has one Russian--but they also have two Americans. The New York Philharmonic has one Chinese and two Americans. So that's two non-Americans out of six oboists, which isn't "most of". So what American orchestras specifically are you referring to, that have been hiring Europeans instead of Americans?"
>>>Agreed. (referring to the post saying Europeans are winning most US jobs): You might want to check your facts before saying something like that. Actually, look at the people that have been in the finals of or have won major US auditions lately: Liang, Izotov, Nathan Hughes, Jeannette Bittar, Dwight Parry, some current students at Juilliard and Curtis: all American/ American trained.
