Listen I don't know what that is but it's concerning-
Flute vs Clarinet vs Oboe - What squeak makes you want to shove your head in a sand pit the most?
Flute: Fix your embouchure, fix your position, what ever you were doing wrong p l e a s e fix it.
Clarinet:
"It's probably my reed."
"Why you lyin... why you always lyin..."
Oboe: please stop summoning Satan, it's disturbing the flutes.
Piccolo:

My head was in the sand as soon as they pulled out a piccolo. We don't even have one in the band so I just avoid it.

Heck yeah
I get to doot an oboe again on Tuesday. Wish me luck.
Mhm, mhm.
I did not get to doot an oboe. My teacher did not turn up. I waited for twenty-five minutes.
From last week. Please keep in mind that I've only had one lesson on the oboe, and couldn't make a sound out of it at that point, this is about two months later, when I wanted to try again. I have my instrumental lesson tmr, so I'm having another lesson. Yeee. I ended up (obv. not in the video) playing C, A, B and G very badly last week. Proud of myself. I made a noise out of it this time. -LilFlute
Sad Doot.
Got told that the oboe won't be back til next year.
The joys of living in a tiny outback town, where nonody plays the duck instrument.

Yahoo answers why is my head sore after playing the oboe

I only got this oboe a few months ago, but if anything happened to it, I would kill everybody in the room and the myself.

Oboes!! I require asistance!!
What's the difference between reeds? Is there different levels for reeds? Is it like a clarinet reed, where theres 1, 1 and a half, 2, 2 and a half ect? What's the easiest reed to play on? What's a good brand to buy reeds from?
I'm so lost, and these reeds don't look too good (split and chipped in multiple places)
composing is hard and i want none of it
Something I never thought I'd discuss at work: Oboes
