Susan,
About two years ago - I tried a wonderful Loree Royale. I didn't buy it since I was helping someone else choose an Oboe.
It intrigued me - so when I began my search for a new Oboe I tried Loree royales first. I tried over 13 instruments and had a difficult time duplicating the experience I had with the first one I played. Actually, I bought one and had it for a week. But alas, the more I played on it - I realized I couldn't live with it and sent it back for a refund.
My teacher says that the Royales are now favored in many quarters - however, for me - except for that one superior instrument - it wasn't a good fit.
I've tried Laubin's - and I found the sound to be "boxed in" they have wonderful stability - with less flexibility .
One more Marigaux story. My teacher had two students in an all county orchestra. The advanced student played a Loree and the less advanced student (who actually tried my Marigaux and then bought one) played a Marigaux. My teacher reported the less advanced student's sound just sang right through .........
When my teacher plays Bach on the Marigaux it just seems so congruent.
He frequently talks about an edge on the Loree he always works to minimize - lots of reed time! My reeds in the his Loree sound thin - in the Marigaux thick ....... go figure!@!@!@!
I just prefer the Marigaux experience. One more comment - my teacher had a student who went on for advanced training at a prestigious University. The student at the insistence of her teacher switched from a Marigaux to a Loree. My teacher commented she lost something in the process and struggles more now. Her individuality was lessened. He thinks the Marigaux is in the soloist tradition of Oboe playing in Europe.
