I actually completed my grade 8, LTCL (Trinity College) and my first year of a performance degree at university, on an oboe that was marked Rudel Carte ( It was similar to the LM 5 but not) and it was very basic. it was not so easy but that is what I had. Nothing was articulated, forked Fs were unvented, open ring system and simple octaves...G was just a hole. However the oboe sang like a dream and was one of the nicest little oboes I have ever owned. I have a similar (but more advanced) Triebert (Cousenon) from the 1930s that has a similar quality and I have played most of my repertoire that I have played on my more modern Fossati. However, I rarely use my LH F and instead tend to favour my forked F.
