JAZZ OBOE - OBOMAN

[@overainbows]

I love when the oboe plays different styles other than classical music. It has a huge potential! Thanks to yt I got to know Jean-Luc Fillon's and Ivan Meyer's work.

[@gaviaoboe]

Hello, I' m a oboe player and i want to that your music is fantastic. We all know that the oboe is allways conected to the classical music, but you are showing to many musicians, including oboe players, that we can make another kind of music and with a great quality. Congratulations. ...Sorry for the bad english :)

[@ClaireAndYesenia]

I have been trying to prove to my jazz band that oboes should be in! Finally some proof!!! :)

[@lexithompson9530]

ClaireAndYesenia I showed this and they said that the guy was just playing a Jazz piece. I WANT to prove them wrong!

[@BrowithStoryCool]

I would tell them that the oboe is like the soprano sax, just sounds better

[@crttoys1]

Who says jazz isn't for oboe! I'll need to show my director this... he refuses to believe...

[@bislibamba]

thats a person who loves his oboe. im so glad to find this! im a beginner oboist and these pieces are just so amazing.

[@Scottehicks]

Beautiful! I've been waiting to hear a jazz oboe player for years! I'll tell you what this trio needs is a bassist. I'm just the guy to fill in, and lay down a slippery fretless groove to complete this sound.

[@lqr824]

Orgegon, especially in the 70s, had a lot of oboe by Paul McCandless. Really heart-rendingly beautiful stuff if you've got good speakers. Recently (last 20-30 years) I hear him playing more clarinet and sax, often with Bela Fleck.

[@theophile68]

jazz with french sound, the dream!!!

[@eyeheartchrist]

jazz oboe on youtube. My life is complete now. Yet another instrument that I would love to get my hands on. :-)

[@lqr824]

3:20: if this were on album by Oregon it'd be one of my more favorite songs on the record. Percussionist is incredible too. Piano great too I guess! How come this band isn't famous?

[@Jeanlucfillon]

Thanks... that's the question??? ;-)

[@viviancassimally6948]

WAW ! c'est la première fois que j'entends du hautbois en Jazz ,ça sonne bien.

[@EricFontaineJazz]

jazz oboe master! This video has inspired me to buy an oboe on ebay!

[@TheAnnaFisher]

my greatest inspiration for oboe right now in character and spirit .. heal

Vraiment, le meilleur hautboïste jazz ! So amazing !..

[@adeslonmendesdeassis7737]

Eu nunca poderia imaginar uma banda fantástica como esta.

[@mariettechabaud1242]

Je découvre. C est super ! Belle vitalité musicale. Merci.

[@207962]

wow he is amazing i play the oboe byt this makes me want to perform within jazz! hey does he have a songs such as smooth jazz

[@RykComerford]

France produced Jean-Luc Ponty, best jazz-fusion violinist. And now a jazz oboist named Jean-Luc.

[@Gopherborn]

The percussionist is spectacular!

[@CaitlinBrooksMusic]

This is AWESOME! I love oboes even more now that there are more jazz players using it! I really wanna do it too when I have one!

[@maloneap64]

Outstanding sound and techniques on the oboe.

[@TimPriceJazz]

So beautiful, and great feel on the oboe,

[@gilmar_mus]

Three creative musicians,great job, congratulations!!!

[@QncyPrk]

I have only watched this video once, and am already sniffing and chewing my food to its beat. Oboes are the best...

[@LeathanL]

As a guy who occasionally listens to the local, what "smooth jazz"/"fuzak" station, I have to say I've heard just about all the alto sax (or sax in general) that Iever wanted to. Definitely nice to hear a new timbre, obe seems to hit the spot nicely.

[@oboeful]

esto es increible!!!! wow!!!!! espero llegar a ese nivel!!!! valla, ese hombre es lo máximo

[@BigBangTheoryIsALie]

the comment section were some of the OG's of youtube

[@rhythmfield]

that's sick -- the good kind of sick! Thanks very much for putting that up.

[@sr14225]

Well, I like it. I think it's different. You have to be a really great player to pull off playing jazz oboe or jazz english horn. Great quality reeds and great quality instruments (and great players) make all the difference in the world.

[@Jeanlucfillon]

@tahakkabkohe The first piece is called "Flea Market" (by JL Fillon)

[@ronaldthomas74]

Love that double red !!!!

[@chriss1152]

What a sound that oboe

[@subterraneanbach]

I aspire to this.

[@eyeheartchrist]

you are right on that..there are very few that can make the oboe sing jazz. :-)

[@eyeheartchrist]

hey man, I know you posted a comment a year ago, but I found out something informative about your question about keeping oboes and the players sounding like crap...they say a lot of it has to do with where you get your reeds..whether they are made by machine or by hand..and if the oboe is made by hand and with wood or not. They say machine made reeds make the oboe sound like a duck, so.

[@vulvatronic]

i wonder why are there so few oboe jazzmen out there? the sound is actually quite close to the soprano(or sopranino) sax, perhaps somewhere between that and the clarinet.

[@angelchar1517]

because its fucking hard bro

[@volkypower1973]

that's amazing

[@Ncool11]

IKR? I Can barely make it through a whole song on my oboe without me stopping and gasping and massaging my lips. :P

[@fahmikadaffi5873]

the tambourine guy is awesome!

[@eyeheartchrist]

C* is part of the tip opening scale that Selmer Paris uses on their mouthpieces. C* is one of the most common tip opening classical players use if they are using Selmer Paris S80 Mouthpieces. They have a square throat compared ot the more traditional open chamber classical pieces that the original mouthpiece design Adolphe Sax used, and was his intentions to what he considered the saxophone should sound like, especially classical.

[@Jeanlucfillon]

@juanchomusic hello, this is a dpa microphone

[@MELONMOVIES]

Yes. Yes. YES. YES YES YES!!!

[@releasethefrogs]

Can someone explain the differences between French style and other styles? I'm not sure what difference it makes but I've heard a lot of people try jazz oboe, and the tone sounds like shite, but this guy makes it sound really good. Is it just a skill thing?

[@BorixTheGreat1]

you sir, are crazy! :)

[@milosmarkovic3028]

3:50? instrument name ?

[@davidjohnson2439]

+Buja “BunkeRr” I believe it is a Duduk. It is a traditional Armenian insrument.

[@dunkelenacht3011]

cooooooooooooooooooool ich spiele auch oboe

[@samtheman264]

Is there an album for all these songs? They are amazing

[@iTzxNooBs]

Can you give me some tips on how you play? Did you develop a different tone for jazz? If so, how? How do you play without vibrato and make it sound so great? Is it in the reeds?

[@orisoapperson8608]

Damn 9 years that’s rough

[@snufkin789]

french style refers to the art of reed-making. real oboe player do not buy reeds but build them by themselves. its not a beginner instrument like sax where you can buy reeds that are ok anywhere. french style means the scraping form of the reed. its probably the most comfortable way of designing your reed. there are also german style and american style scrapings too

[@juanchomusic]

anybody knows what kind of microphone is he using there???

[@hortense_442]

où peux t on trouver la partition? en tant que jazzwomen hautboïste j’aimerais interpréter cette belle œuvre !

[@furinkas]

It looks like he's using an AMT mic, they specialize in mics for wind players.

[@taciturna03]

this is great I play oboe

[@eyeheartchrist]

as far as Soprano Sax goes, it depends on what kind of "Jazz" you're listening to, and who. Definitely gotta slap on a classical mpc to take away the harshness of soprano that it's cliched for.

[@eechuwama5918]

what kind of tambourine is that?!? i want it!

[@eyeheartchrist]

it definitely depends on the sound the French or American Jazz is looking for, same with Classical. The French prefer a more bright, Selmer C* type mouthpieces, wheras America a lot of the time goes for the open chamber, going back to its roots.

[@snufkin789]

What do you mean with C* type mouthpieces?

[@manatee_mailbox]

that tambourine man

[@willipuga]

Does the Oboman reply after 13 years?

[@Jeanlucfillon]

Reply to what? Hahaha

[@karayuschij]

Very nice, but I agree that you need a bass to give more volume (depth) to your music.

[@juanchomusic]

@jazzoboman OK thanks...

[@alwiap15]

Correct DonJeremy.

[@smegolian2295]

This reminds me of Tigran Hamasyan.

[@rinahall]

Stupid comment

[@calicomorgan2408]

So when "Kenny G" recorded with Jeff Lorber Fusion on his soprano sax- basically this sound, but on one of the richest sounding winds known to human-kind. Interesting.

[@COELLO971]

Muchos dicen que el oboe no queda para el jazz aqui hay una prueba de que si!!!!

[@omenoid]

Ok, I stand corrected. I thought the French style in question was related to Jazz.

[@eyeheartchrist]

Sounds like you've been listening to the wrong type of Jazz. From what I've heard in Traditional Jazz, and especially these days, Soprano Sax has never sounded better! Definitely gotta go with a classical mpc to mellow it out, but atleast in the Traditional sense, there has been some great tunes out there that weren't annoying and cliched with soprano, unlike Smooth Jazz and that contempoary garbage. Jean-Luc Fillon rules!

[@ErdbeereRot]

does he play duduk 3:40?

[@snufkin789]

its just not the same. to get a smooth sound your reedmaking skills must be quite high. there's a lot more work involved in it compared to playing sax

[@FlinGolOguE]

Quelqu'un sais qui joue au piano ?

[@Jeanlucfillon]

Il s'agit de João Paulo, excellentissime pianiste de Lisbonne (Lisboa); avec qui je continue à partager de beaux moments musicaux...

[@FlinGolOguE]

Merci beaucoup Oboman

[@rvb7232]

so fucking cool

[@aidanmallon9879]

I think that’s an English Horn, actually

[@TheArmoTrader]

manb he looks like hes using every of his power to play the armenian duduk...

[@BTMM000]

sound's like samba

[@omenoid]

There's no such thing as French style. French jazz, as most of European jazz has perhaps more classical influence (Oboe being an perfect example!) and leaning into avant-garde.

[@vzeno8479]

omenoid There is a difference in how the embouchure is formed and how it can sound not only France, but in America and Germany as well

[@DonJeremy]

Offensive Alwiap15.

[@lardook]

wheres the snake?

The oboe is like a better sounding soprano sax lol

[@XxStrongDrums1996xX]

Your grammatical presentation invalidates any chance of you being taken seriously. Secondly, your feeble-minded view of music discredits your intellectual validity. I'd suggest you not comment here again.

[@orchplayers]

I'm not sure what comment/person you are replying to, but many speak more than one language so that they don't have perfect spelling and grammar in English. Don't be so judgmental.

[@TURBOMIKEIFY]

It's pretty much, just a soprano saxophone... Just without that metallic(ish) sound.

[@derycktrahair8108]

If you want that sound why not play Soprano Sax?. The fingering is easier. Why would anyone distort the subtle tone of an Oboe or Cor Anglais to play some half-baked contemporary Jazz?. This is just "showing off".

[@sinew1115]

The Soprano sound similar, but in no way has the same fluid sound the oboe has, as well as the fact that Oboe has been a considered a jazz instrument in many cases.
