 Re: The real practical range (compass) of the Oboe
Author: Barry Vincent

A publisher in Wales has sent me a photocopy of the original score of Grace Mary William's Oboe piece 'Carillons for Oboe & Orchestra' I've just finished typing out the Oboe part using Print Music (Finale)
I was hoping that it didn't go any higher than top F but this work has four high F#s, two high G s and one high G#.
The F#s I can handle but the G s and G#s I've moved down an octave. It is an excellent piece for solo Oboe though and has a unique sound typical of G M Williams melody writing. She even manages to get lovely melodies into the orchestral cadences of most of her compositions.
