 Re: Slurring to top D

I definitely think you should look into getting a Philadelphia high D key. What is does is hold down bottom ring which is your third finger right hand. There is a screw right on top of the C key. The Philadelphia high D has a screw right next to it. I have the Philadelphia high D key on my oboe, and can't imagine my life without it. I had it put on my prior oboe, too. John Symer can do this for you with no problem. He's done many of them.

Back when I was studying with Lou Rosenblatt, he said "Don't blow" when slurring up to high D. That does help somewhat, but nothing to me is better than the Philadelphia high D.
