Soooo, it’s been two years to the day that I have been playing the oboe!!!

This year I played as section leader of my university wind band and I got to play the solo in Vaughan Williams Folk Song Suite!! :D

Oh and I got to have a lesson w my new amazing teacher!!

Oboe is one of those instruments where it sounds so unique and beautiful but the players can range from total snobs to pretty unhinged but funny individuals who chose to do oboe because the band life was too easy for them. Yes I’m also one of these people, and yes I’m also unhinged. So anyways what I’m trying to say here is that OBOE PLAYERS NEED HELP!

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

Classical 91.7 audio librarian, Dacia Clay has a secret: she knows next to nothing about classical music. But she wants to learn! Luckily, she’s surrounded by classical music experts every day. In each episode of the Classical Classroom, Dacia’s colleagues and other classical music luminaries give her classical music “homework assignments”. You’ll learn about everything from bel canto aria to the use of leitmotif in the score to Star Wars. Come learn with us in the Classical Classroom. In this episode, River Oaks Chamber Orchestra's Artistic Director, founder, and principal oboist, Alecia Lawyer takes Dacia inside the mind of an oboe player. In this strange world, people grow their own (bamboo), enjoy fame alongside Willie Nelson, and live on the edge without all of the annoying parachutes and bungee cords.
