As a clarinetist I hereby confirm that an oboe is indeed a cool clarinet 100% definitely not a completely different instrument

Oboe is just a better clarinet. I played clarinet in highschool marching band before I graduated this June.

well he is a professional oboist I'd assume a lot of that translates over to clarinet

Yeah I play the alto sax tho

[@Vivi-Mage]

@@freshbeans I'd say yes and no, I'm not an oboist so I can't say for sure but I know that they're quite distinct in a lot of ways

[@rachelrandolph2579]

@@freshbeans except the fact that the mouthpiece of the clarinet is not even close to the oboe.... oboe is a double reed that requires you to pull your lips in and be like a reverse duck lip where clarinet lets your teeth rest on the mouthpiece while only curling your bottom lip in. it causes a lot of issues when you're used to playing a double reed and switch to a single reed... as an oboist... no it doesn't lol

[@itzjustguest4537]

"FRÆÑÇÈ" 😭

[@fannymozzarella]

As an oboist, I did not know that you had to bite the clarinet's mouthpiece like that-

[@jermarule34]

Yup. A well-loved mouthpiece will have indents on the top where your teeth rest.

[@ericaston8982]

I play oboe and clarinet, yes this is something you do if you look the clarinet has a pad on the mouthpiece to protect it and if it is a loved instrument it will have quite a bit of little teeth marks. Biting it helps give a better tone.

[@gerrytheflyingcloudco9671]

I also play the clarinet and would to learn to play the Oboe. 😅I really like this video❤

[@FailWithMe]

It is far easier to go from clarinet to oboe than the other way around...just remember that you have to keep your embouchure so that both your top and bottom lips are held balanced (and covering teeth) by your jaw and mouth muscles. And keep your tongue under the reed (so it doesn't get pinched).
