I do some Firling, Vade-Mecum, but generally I stick with classical music, small ensemble (trio, quintet), pit orchestra (which is plenty challenging at times). For solos I prefer Schmann and the baroque masters. I sub in the local symphony so will work hard in preparation if it's technical; mostly I aim for a beautiful sound and a good blend with other players.

And I really enjoy fine-tuning my homemade reeds.

I don't ever expect to earn my living playing the oboe; I'd rather enjoy it than for it to become a 'chore'. I know I'm not competitive (for full-time symphony work) but that's fine with me.
