Hmm, ok so I can see that I need to pay closer attention to the interaction of the air.
In an earlier thread, it was suggested that I may be playing as far down the oboe as the G (is was a thread that talked about water in the horn, gurgling at the G, etc.), so after I read that I became more aware of how far down the horn I was sending the air. I'm not sure that I'm putting this well, but in any case, it helped to connect me better with where the air actually is in the horn.
I probably haven't said this but I really appreciate all of the help and information that many of you have given. Sept. will be the anniversary of when I got a reed that I could play on - it will be my first anniversary on the oboe. I don't regret the years of playing clarinet in my youth but I'm still happily in awe of the oboe and I love playing it. Anyway, thanks to all of you.
