Aw, it's okay! You were probably up against many people, no? Second chair is great in any case.
I love your picture!
Sure, oboes so great jazz! Look up Paul McCandless.

I just found out I got 2nd Chair in the youth orchestra. I was really hoping for 1st, but maybe next year!
JazzOboe
Ah! Same for me! I also mix them up regularly, so no one knows what I'm talking about anyways, they can never be sure!

I know! The english horn is just great, isn't it? I always say french horn when I'm talking about it, but I never mean to. I need to fix that problem! =]

I can't wait! Youth symphony practice starts in like 12 days! I also get to pick up my music on the 2nd. I think I get to find out what chair I'm in then too! I'm sooo excited!

wow. that's the exact model i want, a 520! i played on a 500 at my highschool, but i could never use it because it was always in use? i used another school's, and they had a horwarth(sp?), but i don't like them as much as foxes
bp_oboist
foxes are great! what model is it? 500 (wooden), 520 (plastic), 550 (plastic), or a 510 (i think that's the other model.. but i know there's 2 wooden and 2 plastic)
bp_oboist
trypo is 45 minutes away.. which isn't bad sometimes, but it's a pain to get out there
bp_oboist
i need a job.. i want an english horn more than anything right now! i hate how their so expensive though
bp_oboist
hah i know! i ask my brother and sister, and they usually say yes.. but i can't trust them sometimes! i'm trying to get the videos of me playing the english horn, but i'm still trying to figure out how to do that. hopefully i can soon! 
bp_oboist
i'm sure you will. i'm hoping the same thing too because the good oboe in that orchestra left for the best youth orchestra in the area, and he got in, and i didn't :\, but i didn't really care.. i was too young anyway. idk whether the 17 year old who auditioned made it, and if so, she might get the solos over me.. which i hope doesn't happen!!
bp_oboist
i know! i hate it! when i borrowed another school's english horn, i recorded myself, and i sounded fine.. but when i played oboe, it sounded duckish..lol
bp_oboist
haha thanks! i hate how i sound in it though.. i sound like a duck! 
bp_oboist
yeah, it's really fun. oboes usually get TONS of solos in the originals! i have copland's appalachian spring, and so far oboe 1 has had atleast 7 solos.. maybe more.
bp_oboist
that's great, congradulations! i was just in an orchestra (shjo), but it played like easier arrangements of symphonies. i auditioned for trypo, and got in. they play the real stuff.. which is making me reeally excited!
bp_oboist
congrats! what orchestra did you get into? i was accepted into trypo (young peoples orchestra)
oboegirl
Yay!!!!!!!! I found out about the youth orchestra results and I got in!!!!!!
oboegirl
I had the Audition yesterday and I thought it went very well! they seemed to think that I sounded very good so I don't know. I find out if i get in next friday! I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!
oboegirl
Thanks! Congratulations on getting in on your first try! I hope i can get in!

I hope your audition goes well! I think that auditions make everyone nervous to a degree, but you get used to it. :D
I'm excited 'cause I made the first youth orchestra I tried out for this year, and I might be getting to go to the Interlochen school :D

The recorder is a great instrument because it it pretty easy to learn, so you should be able to learn pretty fast!
oboegirl
