The best way to learn how to do pulsing vibrato is, if you play any other woodwind instrument (especially flute), learn to pulse your air and vibrato on that instrument, it makes it 10 times easier to learn it on oboe after you’ve learned it on the flute. That’s how I learned to do it.
The purpose of doing vibrato in rhythm with a metronome is to develop control of the muscles involved. Remember this video is designed for players that have absolutely no concept of controlling the vibrato at all. How do you develop that if it doesn't "come naturally" to you? This process breaks down the process to develop coordination of all the muscles involved in producing vibrato. No, it's not musical, but neither is a lot of what we do to break down difficult things in our practice.
yes, it is improper as it must come from the breath. I am always working on my vibrato. I'm going to try her exercises. Plus it is hard to teach you pretty much have to have a method.
I was taught on the sax that you would use your tongue to do vibrato. On oboe, it's all in your breathe and support from your diaphragm and abdominal muscles.
A diaphragmatic vibrato produces variation in two ways: dynamic and pitch. Merely moving the embouchure produces a variation in pitch only, which is improper because it is not characteristic of the oboe.
When a teacher demonstrates to a student how to develop vibrato, the whole focus is on the dynamic change that results from the diaphragm pulsing. Trying to play in tune or with good tone is unimportant and distracts from the intended focus on the diaphragm and the need to not focus on staying in tune by adjusting the embouchure.

This is actually so helpful thanks!
Very helpful, thanks!
Vibrato in quadruplets help in fast songs
Thank you!
thank you ! v helpful
I wouldn't thing vibrato has to be in rhythm
No, but it is a way to practice it.

is it improper to move your embouchure to do vibrato, similar to alto sax, on oboe?

@@MrPhucktard If you want to hear a huge pitch vibrato, one could search for sound examples of exotic reed instruments, like the duduk or the ney.
Far too much chatter...not enough oboe (what an awful sound 🤐when it is 'played...for a few seconds)😔
