I dont think I`ve ever heard an oboe play jazz. Please, someone correct me if I`m wrong, but aren`t oboes mainly used in orchestras to play the beautiful long solos?

Well, you can go look at the thread about Jazz Oboes, and that might tell you something.

I think the best way to learn is just to practise, practise and practise. I have also become interested in jazz and improvisation recently. Oboe is probably the best intrument on earth, you can play those long beautiful solos, but also jazz music. I know that it is not very common, bur I assure you it`s possible! Don`t expect it to sound excellent the first time. It won`t... Good luck!
