Whenever I see violinists playing really well, I get a low-key urge to run out and buy a violin and start playing, then I think about the whole 10,000 hours and the urge goes away. It was fun watching your friends make fun of your crow. I think to be well-rounded, music students should also study a craft like pottery. Reed making should exempt most oboists from this requirement. From the little I heard here, your reeds seem to work really well throughout the range, so you're clearly doing something right. What's the backstory of your fellow oboist who also seems to be an accomplished pianist? You guys work pretty long, varied hours!!
