She did well in the Pick 'em contest.
BTW VG, I'm listening to Beethoven's Ninth on a CD my daughter plays the oboe solos.
Ouch Oboe. Not easy to play and not easy to listen to either.
I'm listening to Vivaldi right now, that is what yahoo radio is playing for me at the moment. Is this the day of similarities for us? :swoon3:
The oboe and english horn are the most difficult wind instruments to play. But I think they are quite haunting in their beauty of sound, although if not played spot on, they can be hard on the ear. They play much of the melody in symphonic music and many solos, which would lead you to think composers must like their sound.
