On this page, you will find additional resources to help you continue your study on the oboe. For newer players, I recommend you start with the “Gekeler Method.” Also, on this page I have included links to recordings and articles about some of the best oboe players of all time. My final words of advice are “listen you must, if oboe master you will become.” Best of luck to you on your journey to become an Oboe Jedi Master!
