Book Description

June 17, 1961
The Art of Oboe Playing is actually two books in one -- one part by Robert Sprenkle on playing the oboe, and another part by David Ledet on reed-making. Sprenkle was the renowned teacher of some of the finest oboists, among them Robert Bloom of the Rochester Philharmonic. Ledet has an exceptionally broad professional background, including assistant band director, teacher of oboe and theory, and administrator.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Art of Oboe, December 30, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Art of Oboe Playing: Including Problems and Techniques of Oboe Reedmaking (Paperback)
A very masterful book this is. It is especially made for beginners and intermediate players that want to start their oboe career in the right path. It has step-by-step instructions and large images to know that you are on the right path. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves the arts of playing the oboe.
