"Was watching the Vienese orchestra on TV a few nights ago. The obosits were playing almost vertically."

Were they playing Mahler by any chance? They may have been filmed during a "Schalltrichter auf" moment ('bells up'). I was watching the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra doing Mahler 7 - the oboists put their heads right back to do the Schalltrichter auf passages.

I notice the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra oboists adopt the European posture too. But there are plenty of European (and British) players that play at a more downward angle.

Former oboe finisher
Howarth of London
1998 - 2010

The opinions I express are my own.
