Title: Summer - oboe teacher?
Post by: hautbois on October 10, 2008, 09:49:18 AM
I play the oboe, i play short scrape reeds, if that matters at all, main point: summer of 2009, i want to go somewhere, anywhere in the world, to sit down, and work on the fundamentals of oboe playing and do nothing but take lessons, make reeds, and practise the oboe everyday for 10 hours a day for 3 months!

Any suggestions? =D

Regards,
Howard

Anyways, here is a short clip of me playing with my youth orchestra back in 2007:

The question is, will i acquire the mastery of the instrument at the level of Francois Leleux after i am done with you.  ;D

No seriously, do you teach advance students?

Oboe is one of my favorite instruments. Congratulations for your talent. Good luck!.

By the way, what's the name of your orchestra?. Have you recorded with them?. I have watched the video on youtube, and I've liked it.

Well, perhaps my teaching abilities aren't quite up to your standard; I've mostly gotten adult beginners since I started teaching privately a few years ago.  And I make no guarantees about your level of mastery "afterward;" that's up to you. :)
