OBOE

We are limited to beginning 2-3 students.  Oboe is a solo instrument. Oboists relish the chance to be heard on their instrument. Oboists demonstrate an immediate ability to “hear” pitch and match pitch by ear. Due to the nature of this instrument, oboists are expected to practice patience, perseverance, and positive attitudes. It is an advanced instrument. Oboe players tend to be diligent with school work, and have a “do it until I can’t get it wrong” attitude. 

PRIVATE LESSONS are REQUIRED for this instrument.  Playing this instrument requires a 3 year commitment to band. 

LISD provides the instrument for an annual fee of $100.  Students must provide the recommended reeds.
