Re: Oboe and Health issues

I like this subject and many of the intelligent comments. Most subjects here are about reeds and for me it is sufficent if I have some reeds that are good enough and I usually have some.
I have practise breathing as a singer, as a flute player and now as an oboe player, and I think it is all about controlling an air column by the diaphragm. I try not to think about exhaling or inhaling (especially) but instead to loose the diaphragm support which for me result in that I exhale the remaining air. As a flute player it is important to inhale a lot of air but not as an oboe player. I would like to think that the air in my lungs differ between empty - half full, not between half full - full (not true of course).
Everyone (especially girls) sometimes or always breath with their shoulders instead of using "diaphragm breathing". The "shoulder breathing" never let you get rid of much of the excessive air and may be dangerous when you play the oboe.
