Oboe

In Oboe Concerto No. 3 in G minor HWV 287 by George Fredric Handel, the listener is subjected to a lengthy journey of sound, in which the mind is stimulated with various parts of music. The four movements express a decent amount of change from the movement before it, which keeps the listener engaged throughout the whole piece. The tempo, which is defined as the general speed of the music, starts off as a nice average speed. It’s not too fast or slow, though it does increase or decrease later in the

a recent keyboard transcription of Bach’s. The transcription was of a piece called Concerto in D minor for Oboe, Strings and Basso Continuo. Bach listed the composer as the well-known Venetian composer Benedetto Marcello. As I listened to the piece, I was captured by the simple yet eloquent melodies that were presented but I also was curious as I had not known of Benedetto to write for oboe. I also know that Marcello stated, “Oboes, flutes, trumpets, bassoons, etc., will always be out of

Music isn’t just what I do, it is who I am. I’ve been surrounded by music ever since I remember. One of my earliest memories is of my mom playing piano for my family, something she often did throughout my childhood. Time and time again, her simple melodies echoed through our cozy house and as I stood next to her, watching her hands, they also started to resonate in my heart. Even in those early years, I knew that I loved music. From then on, I took every opportunity I could to make music. I started

music comes to an apex with the dynamics becoming louder and more forceful in playing. Just before this moment there is a slow build up, giving the feeling that something is about to happen. Right after, at 4:17, an oboe is introduced along with the underlying main theme, the oboe then gets its own solo, which is probably one of my favorite parts of this movement. At 6:50, there is a more dramatic variation of the theme, it feels almost like a final victory blow at the end of a movie. The final

inappropriate relationship with her oboe teacher, Jay Nesmith, a man 40 years her senior. As I read through the pages my heart sank. I realized that I had failed my daughter in the most basic of ways, by not protecting her from the forces of evil. You see she had fallen for the gimmicks, gifts, and sweet talk about which I had not warned her sufficiently. Jay Nesmith came into our lives as a breath of fresh air in September 2013. He was going to teach my Jessica to play the oboe. He immediately told me

that there was a solo piece needed on an instrument no one played in our band. She had asked if anyone wanted to learn the instrument and the music. The room was quiet and stayed quiet until another clarinet player asked, “What instrument is it?” “An oboe.” Everyone started laughing. We had never even heard of this. While it seemed everyone else just had brushed it off after having their laughs, I was intrigued. It amazed me that there was more than just the basic 7 instruments we had first heard of

played the oboe, I played the saxophone. The oboe was not a well-known instrument and I only saw it once in an elementary school assembly. Though the saxophone was a nice instrument, I found its sound not satisfying enough. In sixth grade, my band teacher asked me to play the oboe and I said, “Sounds interesting!” and without knowing it, I had just let myself embark on one of the bumpiest journeys of my life. The oboe consists of two main parts, the reed and the actual oboe. The oboe is a long,

The inventor of the saxophone, Antoine-Joseph “Adolphe” Sax, was a genius inventor. His invention of the saxophone and other instruments changed the musical world and his influence still felt today in jazz bands across the world, even though he never got to see his inventions become as popular as they are today. Sax had many difficult challenges to face throughout his life, but he persevered and we can learn many lessons from his example. Adolphe Sax was born in Dinant, Belgium on November 6, 1814

Music would not be music if it were not for the sound produced by an object we know of as an instrument. “A musical instrument is a device created or adapted to make musical sounds (Oxford dictionary (British & World English)).” Music dates back to many years and even before electrical instruments humans alway found a way to create sound. Whether it was by clapping, singing or humming people alway created ways to create sound. Although not a proven fact, I strongly believe music is a way to connect
