I am an oboist I have been playing oboe since 1975. I have been repairing oboes and other wood wind instruments since 1981. Received apprenticeship privet training in wood wind instrument repair from 1977 to 1980 My goal is to get good playing oboes in to the hands of musicians.
I repair and or restore oboes of all types from the best professional oboes too student oboes. it is my passion that started as a side business. And is know a full time job. Many of the oboes that come threw my shop I buy from Ebay some of them are in need of a full restoration . most of the wood oboes I work on I will remove all of the keys and do a full oiling I put the oil on and let it soak in to the wood in side ( the bore) and out. not just the bore. this helps to bring the wood back to life and will close the grain. this brings the oboe back to life makes it play as good as it can. I find that Oboes that are ( played out ) can be restored to close too there best playability. I do not like to use the words played out. What has actually happened is over time water vapors have worked there way in too the wood and caused the wood to swell and dry this makes the bore of the oboe resistant to the wind that is making the tone. witch over time with out a good oiling the effect will make the oboe hard to play . What the oil dose is it swells the wood but dose not dry out. this makes the oboe play free with out resistance bring the oboe back too life.
A little about Patricola Oboes. I had the privilege to tour the factory. While there I play tested About 20 instruments all played excellent with nice even tone and tuning. This includes the student oboes Witch have the 3rd oct key And low Bb and are made with the same attention to details as the Professional.In my opinion These oboes compare well with Laubin in all Patricola PT.1 s6 evoluzione is the best oboe I have played and is what I play now!
