yup

i play oboe..i`m trying to look for some printable sheet music for our band at school..anyone got any good sites??

why do people always pick on oboe players? My friend plays the oboe and it seems that people always tack the mickey out of her for it. I think all instruments sound good when they are being played correctly.

Heh, don`t worry about it. oboe players are always abused! the first year I played and since then I`ve been called a duck. Since when I first sounded on an oboe, it was a sound of duckish quality. lol. Respect there is, but can`t help the teasing.. my teachers joke to me... how do you get two oboes to play in tune?..............you shoot one of them. heh.

I have been playing the oboe for 2 years, but play at a very high level, having played with college bands, etc. I find the reason noone really plays the oboe is that a) it is not offered as a beginning instrument or b) once you get to the higher levels, it is extremely difficult. Another thing that makes it harder is that it is more difficult to tune then other winds, has a different embouchure, and if you just happen to be a musical idiot and dont know youre part, whether youre in tune, whatever, sometimes there isnt someone else to listen to. Thats what i think.

Hi guys.. Im very new here. U can say Im from another planet..but I swore i didn`t know there`s a forum for oboist. Its pretty hard to find one these days. Anyway, I`ve been playing the oboe for quite some time...n like any of you guys here..Im needing of some assistance or any juicy tips of playing the oboe. Like all of u, I really feel like one duck martian in band. No one hardly notices u unless I wear a skirt on tat day. Oh well, enough crappin`..ciao for now.

o.o................. o.O

belive it or not there are 6 oboes in my band. I know there are many more in others but mine is begining!

Only 4 eighth grade oboes in my entire district! We have over 200 of other 8th grade instruments. Two guy oboes (me included) and two girls.

hey, well there are only 2 oboes in my band including me....but in our district it seems there are more beginning oboes in 7th grade than anything else, a whole lot, hopefully the oboe world expands...if they`re any good!
