hello~
i have been playing the oboe for about 2 years now and would like to progress onto the english horn. i would like to know some similarities and differences between them and things about the reeds..such as what is the difference? are english horn reeds really more expensive? has anyone had any past experiences with the english horn that you know, and what did they find easy, enjoyable and challenging about it? i would like to learn this info before actually taking on this instrument. thanks

english horns are more expensive, off-hand i cannot tell you how much of a difference. and there is always a challenge with a new instrument; fingerings, embouchure, etc. people i know of who played an english horn say it is enjoyable because it is whta they wanted to do. hope this helps.
