great video, id have to disagree on the never using the Eb key on forked F because some models of student oboes don't have an F resonance key making that note in particular (at least in the second octave) quite stuffy sounding.
@@GatorTotsMusik Very true!! Most of those instruments are older instruments though, so while you are completely right, most of the instruments students will be playing will have an F resonance.
@@SoprAboist I appreciate your response. I did not really think about the age of the instruments when typing my response. I really enjoy your content and explanations. Hope to see more of your content in the future. I'd love to hear your opinion on 3rd octave alternate fingerings if you haven't made a video on that already.
@@GatorTotsMusik Thanks!! Yes I need to make some more soon. My opinion on the 3rd octave fingerings is pretty short though! I don’t use them because I generally don’t need them on my instrument, but many of my students love them!
Thanks Kurt! I can’t agree more. It’s important information that many young oboists aren’t always aware of, which makes their life more difficult later on in their playing.
Excellent video! Thank you.
Thanks so much Scott! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Vital information, can't thank you enough for taking time to share this!
