Re: wire for Oboe reed

Author: oboeruth29  Date:   2010-10-28 04:46 I make reeds for private students, and I am currently experimenting with the wire. I find it's extremely easy to make quick adjustments to my students reeds specifically pertaining to the opening of the reeds. I think it's super effective. I personally would not play using wire for myself because I feel that it ultimately constricts the sound slightly, as in, the cane cannot vibrate as naturally as if it does not have wire. I also don't need to make my reeds so easy like I have to for my students. I find that pinching down on the wire closes down the reeds very easily, enabling my students to play on a more robust reed that they would not otherwise be able to play on because the opening would be slightly too wide for their lips thus, too difficult for them. I taught a student on Monday and gave her a reed with a wire and she sounded like a million dollars and was able to play on it with ease. I feel like I am making giant leaps with her sound as a result of this experimenting that I am doing. Ruth B. Garcia
