I bought my first wood oboe a few months ago and I love it, but I am so paranoid about it cracking, especially now that winter is coming up. Where I live, winter get extremely cold (frequently below 0 degrees F). I bring my oboe to and from school daily, so it'll be exposed to the weather quite a bit. In addition, the instrument storage room where I keep it is always freezing, as my school's geothermal "heating system" doesn't work at all. So I was wondering if I should do something to keep it warm/make temp changes more gradual. Maybe I could wrap it up in a fleecy sweatshirt or something? How about in the car? I'm assuming having the heater on is a bad idea, yes?
Anyways, I would love any advice I can get on this subject.
Thanks!
