i play Eb alto saxaphone. That was amazing im just a beginner but im top in the whole Eb sax players in 4th gr but that was the best thing ive EVER seen
i am learning oboe and i can bearly playmy heart will go on btw i am age 11 wanna go 2 Harvard working on getting better @ oboe. strait A student since kindergarden
My mouthh dropped open and stayed that way thru out the whole video OMG i just picked up oboe like yesterday and this playing is fenominally shocking.!!! GREAT JOB BTW ^_^ (PS i normally play clarinet)
While this requires great skill, and I have massive respect for this player, playing something like that at that speed just doesnt sound like music. Now obviously he was showcasing a technical skill, not giving a recital, but just saying that glorifying this type of thing is not good for music.
Where did u learn!..I learned oboe by myself and I'm in honor band and I just can't seem to have a great sound help!!! Anybody...P.S my middle C sucks ass
you generaly have to have a good reed and a good oboe to make a good sound and for the middle C try puting some of the fingers on your right hand down .I have also been able to finger the low C below the staff and use my embouchure to make the middle one come out, it sounds amazing but it is hard to find places in music where i can use the fingering.hope this helped.
@pandachick1024 You are well on your way if you put in the time and effort. This oboist came in a said he started in 7th grade playing oboe and practiced hard and a lot. He said you can accomplish anything as long as you put in the time and effort.
@TheTreeMuncher You've got some work to do. This man is the Oboe professor at Akron University. If that weren't enough, he was taught by one of the masters and fathers of the american music style, John de Lancie- Incredible students he created!
The first four bars are slower because there is a stipulation in the official Guinness requirements for musical speed records that the first four measures of Flight of the Bumblebee must be played at a conventional tempo (below 200 bpm). After the first four bars, the record applicant is allowed to speed up as much as they choose.
