The Oboe BBoard

Re: My Ongoing Thread of Improvement: Oboe

Author: sylvangale  Date:   2012-01-14 05:56 You are fabulous for 3 months. I think your reed is too hard though. The pressure leads to fatigue, leads to bad breathing, suffocation, and eventually ... death Are you listening to oboists? That is a big big big help to musicianship. There is a wonderful CD by Marilyn Zupnik where she plays through many Barret and Ferling etudes. Simply listening to the etudes done well will help you play them well as well. Same for music! Get recordings of oboists of the works you are working on a listen to them throughout the week as you are practicing the piece. Weber reeds and Forrests Music has the Zupnik CD, though it's cheaper at Weber: http://webreeds.com/wrstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=221 Amazon has images of the track list: http://www.amazon.com/Guide-Classic-Oboe-Etudes-Ferling/dp/B002QMB10I/ref=sr_1_3?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1326523167&sr=1-3 ♫ Stephen K.
