I joined the school band, first learnt the fingerings, played scales and long tones and then proceeded to pieces when I'm comfortable with all fingers.
The oboe is a better instrument to play. I play it and it was very fun to learn. The Oboe isn't as common as the violin so many people ask me to demonstrate it because they have never heard it before. Plus if you are looking for a job as an oboe player it is easy to get the job because there isn't many oboe players.So the OBOE is better than the VIOLIN.
Like leanring to play all instruments, getting a Private Instructor, prefferably a professional, is the best way to learn. However, if cannot afford to have a private instructor, reliable websites, music books (specifically for oboe), and reed makers as well as your band director (MIGHT) provide good info on learning the oboe.
The Oboe has a double reed, which are two reeds basically put together and held by twine. These reeds are very hard to play and take a while to learn.
To learn how to tune an oboe effectively, you can start by using a tuner to match the pitch of the oboe to a reference note. Adjust the reed and the position of the reed in the oboe to achieve the desired pitch. Practice regularly to develop your ear for tuning and improve your technique.
A standard oboe can play a 13-note range - from a low B to a high G.
"I enjoyed the woodwind quintet recital, but I would have liked to have heard more oboe solos."
the oboe reads on the treble clef and in the key of C
to play music?
yes
This person invented the oboe so she probrably was the first person to play it. Her name was Jean Hotteterre.
The oboe is a musical instrument. Therefore it is used to play classical music.
there is no such thing as an oboe percussion. there is an oboe, and there are percussion instruments, but not an oboe percussion. From an oboe player: I think you might be mixed up. I play some pieces that say oboe/percussion on them, but that is because those pieces are written for middle school bands.
