Yay for oboists! tehehe ... I'm the first oboe person here!! Hope some of y'all oboists come and join! By the way, here's a poem 'bout we girlie oboe persons:
My lady's lips are ruby red
And Cupid bows, indeed;
Now isn't it a sorry shame
To waste them on a reed?
My lady's eyes are dark, dark brown,
Where love could live and die;
But O the sin that they should strain
To watch the notes go by.
Her hair is soft, her waist is slim
She's tender as a lamb;
But soon like me she'll have a paunch
Above the diaphragm.
And O the shame and O the sin
And O the tragedy;
That Oboe takes up all her time
And nothing's left for me!

Re: Yay for oboists! As a matter of fact I am. And I believe I replied to a few of your posts on the clarinet bboard ... dunno if you replied to any of mine or not though. Anywho ~ hallo!
Re: Yay for oboists! heh, awesome! yeah, I think I've seen you (Ember) on quite a few forums. This is my fifth year playing oboe, I'm 16, and a junior in high school.
Re: Yay for oboists! Hey Ember, you're the same age as me!
I'm a composition student... at the QLD Conservatorium of Music... and I play the clarinet, as you've probably seen if you've been exploring the forum.
Re: Yay for oboists! I'm Charlotte, 16 and this is my third year of intermittently teaching myself the oboe. I like to think this is the main reason I sound so bad ...
