 Re: is it as hard as they say

I save my easy playing well broken in reeds. If I take a break for longer than two or three days or am sick I will use my easiest playing reed to regain and embouchure. I also have a small collection of music that has lots of high and low notes with minimal rests (Telemann oboe fantasies). These songs give your mouth a real work out without a lip exhaustion if you take it easy and use the broken in reed. High notes may sag a little, but the idea is to regain strength in a "hurry" not for perfect sound production. Not that my amateur sound is perfect by any means.

So would it be really outlandish to recommend a sterilized well broken in reed from a teacher to learn on?

Does anyone else do this or is this technique totally wrong?
