    Thank you for your comparison and contrast of the bassoon and oboe soli. As
    a bassoonist, I concentrated on my own parts, but now that I'm learning to play the oboe, I am much more aware of what other players in the ensembles are doing. With help like this available, one day I should be a really good musician!

    Geez, it is no wonder you are first chair. I especially appreciate the fact that you explain the particularly Russian nuance of this piece that is so important to the overall flow of the music.

    One of my favorite excerpts to practice as a beginner and favorite to perform! Thank you!

    You play it with such emotion.
    Superior to most of the solos on CZcams!

    Maravilloso. Adoro ese melancólico y gangoso sonido. Me quedé con el recuerdo de Pedro y el Lobo de Prokofiev

    Hi everyone. I know this may be a super basic question. I have heard that some people recommend learning to play the transverse flute before learning the oboe. Is it true? Or can someone start learning to play the oboe without learning the flute first? Thanks in advance for your answer.

      Bruh, learn whatever you want whenever you want to. Maybe flute might help with scales and breathing. But seriously do whatever. I read I couldn’t teach myself viola if I hadn’t played violin. Here I am, teaching my self viola without having played violin.

      Before I began to study the oboe, I played bassoon. Still do, as a matter of fact. Trust your instincts. You'll surprise everyone who says, "You must do this or that". Then you can think, 'I told you so'.

      I played the recorder for one or two years before playing the oboe, and although it helped with general musical skills and some of the fingerings, it's not a requirement. Often they let children practice a less physically straining instrument before going to the oboe, simply because it asks a lot of our lungs, lips and diaphragm. But definitely after 10 years old, you can start right away on the oboe no problem!

      Abby Royall Ive played oboe since I was in 6th grade. Now Im 22. I would definitely say practice practice practice. Specifically scales and holding long tones. Scales to improve your technique and muscle memory. And long tones to really strengthen your embouchure and enhance your tone.

      Hi, Eugene is using a Loree Royal oboe with the A extension joint. Look for the C, B, B flat and A pads on the bottom joint. On others of these videos he uses the usual Loree Royal going down to bottom B flat.

      Ditto, friend. But keep plucking away and eventually it will come. The oboe is easily, by far, the most frustrating instrument I have played; however, once conquered it is the most rewarding of pursuits.

      Well, sometimes walking away for a time is not a bad thing, but you might pick it up again. I've been at it for almost ten years and still struggle (I'm 57-years-old now). I am considering joining a community band in the spring (my oboe teacher - a very patient one believes that I am ready for the experience). Of course it sounds like a duck...but when you advance then it takes on that sound which can be enchanting and desirable. Good luck in whatever final decision you make. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
