Does your site do notifications (RSS, e-mail)? Oklahoma is a bit far from Ontario, but your things are intersting. The oboe makers Howarth (London) and Rigoutat (Paris) have special lines for children as young as 6 and they conduct special classes (can't find the links). So anyone who tells me the oboe is horribly difficult....<br /><br />I'm new to blogging too. I just started this because the OboeBBoard churned-up some really great discussions over the summer and fall. By the nature of a BBoard, a lot of the informaiton gets diluted in the conversation and eventually beomes hard to search. When I presented the idea of this blog on the BBoard, I got a few encouragements, so I figured: go for it and tell your story!<br /><br />Cheers and Happy New Year!RobinDesHautboishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06982605859554912966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2121905122650141172.post-72513734279369904952010-12-31T03:39:22.175-05:002010-12-31T03:39:22.175-05:00I am a first time reader here.

The latter 2 have their merits and uses, but I find that social trends and cool stuff tends to vanquish practicality and good sense!RobinDesHautboishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06982605859554912966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2121905122650141172.post-66132345274455289982010-12-30T15:12:03.672-05:002010-12-30T15:12:03.672-05:00Hi Robin,

Sorry to sound so melodramatic, but's that's how I feel! Actually, You-Tube and the great collection of CS's at the public library has helped a lot with this.<br /><br />A quick look at your blog: will bookmark that one! You have some good videos on your blog: how do I sign up for notifications on Word-Press? With mine, just click the [follow] button at the top.<br /><br />I am a BIG fan of Albrecht Mayer! I respect Hartmann for his specialization on Pasculli: not my favourite music, but I really appreciate taking the oboe to the virtuosic level of the violin like Paganini!<br /><br />Let's keep in touch, shall we? I think people in our situation need to encourage each other!RobinDesHautboishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06982605859554912966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2121905122650141172.post-26688755302049160962010-12-30T11:23:05.688-05:002010-12-30T11:23:05.688-05:00Hi Robin,

I used to play my oboe professionally, but then I stopped to go to graduate school in a different field. Now, after about 10 years, I am getting back to my oboe with a renewed passion for it. I can't believe I left it for this long...<br />I too have a blog that I share some thought about music, oboe, and my own experiences rediscovering the instrument. I haven't been very good about updating it regularly, but you can find it at http://paulomusic.wordpress.com .<br />Cheers!Paulo S.http://paulomusic.worpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2121905122650141172.post-50949116045705690392010-12-29T21:04:47.164-05:002010-12-29T21:04:47.164-05:00To that one could respond the book of the Ecclesia...To that one could respond the book of the Ecclesiastes and a famous song by the Byrds (Turn, turn, turn....)!<br /><br />Between that, the parable of the talents and the understanding that God feeds the birds, though they till not the soil, I think we can understand that the main point of being alive is enjoying life with gratitude (expressed in charity)!RobinDesHautboishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06982605859554912966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2121905122650141172.post-83740123909441150162010-12-29T19:42:28.154-05:002010-12-29T19:42:28.154-05:00Ahhh, more than half my life is over for sure, and...Ahhh, more than half my life is over for sure, and it could very well be that more than 2/3 of my life is over. At this point I don't frequently think on these things. I suppose I should! <br /><br />Time is an extremely strange fellow.<br /><br />Mostly I want to do the right thing. I try to follow something from a book in a book I should read yet ignore: Micah 6:8 <br /><br />But that's just me ....pattyhttp://oboeinsight.comnoreply@blogger.com
