The Oboe BBoard

Re: Advice for an adult beginner

Author: WoodwindOz  Date:   2013-04-27 04:44 Mary, I totally agree with your point about no one telling the student that the instrument is 'hard'. There is a group of teachers back home who constantly perpetuate the myth that the oboe is 'hard' and that's why the kids don't stick with it. Kids (and adults who haven't been exposed to that) don't know what is hard and what's not until you tell them. They just keep walking down the path you lay for them. Sorry for veering your post off course, Ronin!
