 Re: When to begin oboe?

My daughter is in 11th grade and plays oboe. In school she played recorder in 2nd and 3rd grade, and started saxophone during 3rd grade. She took to it fast and then added oboe in 4th grade. Around where we live in the US everyone starts oboe in 4th grade. By the time they are in 6th grade, they are pretty good! I've seen videos on youtube of youngsters in South Korea playing oboe concertos well already when they are 11 years old, so my daughter often feels that she is behind! If your son is interested in oboe let him play it but get him a real oboe teacher.
