  • Very nice!! I liked it a lot, very pretty. Some of the high notes, though, I think might have been a little shrill... and theres this buzzing noise (unless its suposed to be there)? But anyway, good job!

    P.S. I'm a guy clarinet player, and I'm also starting oboe soon-ish! Yay for guy woodwind players! haha

  • @KiyoKenshin Hi, thanks for the nice comment! Yeah, my high notes do sound horrible in this video (doesn't help I'm using a crappy mike though :p). And the buzzing sound is really annoying I know, I tried to get rid of it, but for some reason it would'nt disappear (courtesy of the crappy microphone ;p)

  • @KiyoKenshin since you play the clarinet as do I, I want to ask you the difference between the fingering of the oboe and the clarinet. And also, I notice the mouthpiece (or lack of). Is that just a reed and if it is against what does it vibrate??

  • @mcarthurwallace some of the notes in the higher register of the oboe are very similar to clarinet, like the C#, Eb, E, G, and A. but otherwise, the fingering is different. also, a lot of it is very complicated, and can be confusing if you don't have a finger chart readily available. Also, there is no mouthpiece, the reed vibrates upon itself, meaning its a double reed. When I started I realized it was very hard tp play on the double reed.

    1 second ago Thanks for your knowledge! I think the oboe has one of the most beautiful tones of all woodwinds... I was also thinking about switching to Tenor or soprano sax. I'm getting bored of the Clarinet. I'm a pianist at heart but my piano's in storage until I find a house instead of an apartment, so i needed to play some kind of instrument to stay sane and then I remembered my clarinet in the closet!

  • @mcarthurwallace no problem, and I agree that the oboe has a very beautiful and unique tone, and it really is fun to play! I think the hardest part of learning the oboe is learning how to blow (ha.ha.ha.) but really, I think that may be the hardest part, because its just so different. I leadned it too, because I thought I was bored, but I turns out I really am a clarinetist at heart, and oboe is more ike a hobby for me now.

  • nice! ^^

    btw, what's that column behind you? Is it a decoration?

  • Thanks for watching and commenting :)

    It's just a light (from ikea i think ;p)
