Student Oboe Reeds
Best Student Oboe Reeds For Early Learners. Responsive, Sounds Great, Longer Lasting. Handmade From Scratch.
My Student Oboe Reeds are handmade from scratch and customized to promote accessibility for better learning and more fun in early music making. Attention to detail, expert hand finishing and strict quality controls make them the very best on market. While they are the lightest reeds in my product line, they are still beefier than most other student oboe reeds on the market. By leaving a little extra wood in all the right places, I achieve a great result while promoting reed longevity that many customers appreciate. They are recommended for those who have more than 6 months experience, are engaged with a private teacher, and have achieved a modest working embouchure. They are never tissue thin like some other reeds on the market, so be prepared to work a little harder if that is what you are used to. Note: Magic Reed Student Oboe Reeds have been discontinued and customers are being redirected to First Chair with many of its attributed and all of the same materials.
Below is a demonstration of my student/intermediate oboe reed. It reveals the potential of this reed grade by a player who would normally play on a pro model.
