Reed sorting day. Do you all have such a day once in a while? Wich ones are good, wich ones can go and then I sort them in pitch, sound and flexibility. ( is it normal in other countries to play pitch 442 in wind orchestras and 440 or lower in symphonie and baroque?)

Is there someone who played the Arie (no 3) of the Bach cantate 105? (see pdf) and wants to help me find some direction in it? Where to play to, what are the heavy points, why is the articulation written as it is and so on?

Tips on how to play this jump (F to low Bb)? It is 152 tempo.

Hello, everyone. I'm trying up long scrape reeds (short scraper for some years now) and I would like to know who your favorite reed suppliers are. English Horn especially. Thanks in advance!

It was great to see so many friends again. I really missed our Oboe Path Community. As I starting up playing again, it is great to be reminded about drones and other reed warm-ups. I have been doing a lot of reed flexibility warm-ups to help with intonation and it is working. There are certain notes if I get in tune make all of the notes around it in-tune,. I have been going up and down and playing songs on the reed. Now I need to try without holding the reed in my hand. Wednesday is a great day for me to attend a masterclass so I hope it stays on Wednesdays. Hope to be better by next week so I can participate more. Thanks so much for doing this, Dianne
