Re: Too many oboes in the band, so she quit--a sad little story I happened upon

WOW! I've just read your post, Dutchy, and can't believe it. I'd say someone has his priorities screwed up (and that might be a little too kind a phrase for him).

I'm 49 and just beginning the second year of my oboe instruction and wished that I'd picked this up years ago. It's been fun, frustrating and a rush, to say the least. But for a music educator to turn down the chance for another oboe player (it's not like they are everywhere) is a mystery.

I hope that you will try to convince her to pick it up again. Years down the road she might look back and regret that she did not.

Good luck and thanks for sharing.

Chuck
