"sqeaky gate music" - Love it!

I agree with Chris about differentiating between the "physical" range and the "musical" range of an oboe. I think that nowadays, with modern, well-adjusted instruments we should all be comfortable with anything between low Bb and altissimo F. Anything above altissimo F is asking for trouble - especially if you are attempting a unison with a flute or piccolo.

Flutter-tonguing, multiphonics etc. is purely for the noisemaker brigade and I doubt that music using these effects will survive into the next decade, while Mozart will still be played centuries from now.
