LEARN THE OBOE

The name’s Georgia. I’m a 67-year-old, and I ride my BMX to all my local Vermont Oboe lessons. Let me help you learn something new because you can do anything you put your mind to!

 

Why Oboe? In French, Oboe, or Hautbois (HOE-boy), means “high wood” and is a double-reed instrument with two flattened blades of bamboo that produce sound through vibrations. 

 

The Oboe is also a descendant of an instrument called the shawm from 2800 B.C. in the Middle East and was introduced to the French courts in the 17th century.

 

I think that’s pretty cool.
