The Clarinet BBoard

Re: FUNNY: Does double lip embouchure give me a decent Oboe embouchure?

Author: zhangray4  Date:   2017-07-21 22:56 I think many misunderstood the humor behind my original post. It is true I want to try out the oboe. I like the sound of it. But it is unlikely that I will actually practice really hard on the oboe and beat them at audition. I'm still going to play the clarinet 95% of the time, audition on it in my school/honor bands. And I got college auditions to worry about too. I will probably play the audition pieces with them to motivate them to practice. ' It's supposed to be taken humorously, but I still want to play the oboe. Asking about how difficult it is to switch mainly. Don't worry I'm not being mean to my friends I put my mouthpiece upside down on the clarinet and played with the reed on top, using only upper lip to play. I could play pretty well on it, although I had to hold the clarinet parallel to the ground... This is why I am asking really... -- Ray Zhang
