Abstract

"How to play the oboe in one easy lesson"

by Robert Hinchliffe

Dear Fellow Oboist

"There seems to be a kind of mystique surrounding the playing of the
oboe. There is no doubt that the instrument is very strenuous,
especially for the beginner, but by learning and understanding the
correct techniques of playing it is no more difficult to master than
any other. This e-book, which is based on 30 years experience of
teaching the oboe, will take you through all aspects of technique
enabling you to develop and/or improve your command of the
instrument. Whether you are a beginner or an established player,
this book will guide you through the essentials which will enable
you to truly master that most magical of wind instruments, - the
oboe."

"YOU CAN ACQUIRE THAT BEAUTIFUL TONE LOVED BY SO MANY"

When played well the oboe is one of the most beautiful of all
instruments. However, when played less than well it can be
positively painful to listen to. Good technique gives us the control
to bring the best out of the instrument and produce that lovely tone
which will impress all those who hear it. It is that control which
is at the heart of this e-book.

"EASY STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS TO OBOE SUCCESS"

All aspects of technique are dealt with in a clear and comprehensive
way. Each technique is explained fully and exercises for developing
or improving that technique given. Understanding of why we do things
in a certain way is an essential part of the learning process. This
e-book will explain everything you need to know with clarity and
humour.

"YOU CAN LEARN TO MASTER EVERY TECHNIQUE"

The book contains sections on everything from acquiring a good
posture to, what I call, the secret of oboe playing, - that is the
balance between the embouchure and the diaphragm.

You will learn the `Six Steps' of oboe playing and receive advice on
issues such as control of the high notes, tonguing technique and the
development of a good hand shape.

Whether you are a student, player or teacher, the information in
this e-book is essential reading.

"TAKE THE STRESS AND STRAIN OUT OF PLAYING"

To many young players especially, the oboe is stressful and hard
work. By applying the techniques outlined in this book, the muscles
will be trained to cope with these difficulties making the
instrument much less tiring to play. It is all a question of which
muscles do what! If the wrong muscles are being used then problems
are bound to ensue. This is especially true if smaller, weaker
muscles are being used to do work which should be done by bigger and
more powerful muscles. You wouldn't try to pick up a large bucket of
water with one little finger, - I hope!

"SO WHO AM I THAT YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY?"

Perhaps, first of all it would be a good idea to listen to a
recording of my playing. Please use the buttons below the following
picture to hear me in performance.

MY MUSICAL EXPERIENCE

I studied the Oboe at the Royal College of Music with that great
British oboist, Sidney 'Jock' Sutcliffe. During my student days, I was
Principal Oboe with the British Youth Symphony Orchestra. On completion
of my 4 years at the Royal College I, initially, went on to pursue a
freelance career. This involved work with the Royal Ballet Touring
Company, the International Orchestra of the Cyprus Music Workshop, one
year as Sub-Principal Oboe with the National Symphony Orchestra of
Iceland and oboist with the Arradon Ensemble, a chamber group directed
by Brian Ferneyhough, specialising in 20^th Century repertoire.

I then decided to diversify turning my attention more towards
composition as well as taking a one-year course in instrumental
teaching at Bretton Hall College. This led to a post in the
Instrumental Teaching Service in Berkshire.

Since that time I have continued to be active in all aspects of music,
notably as oboist with Collage Chamber Ensemble (Flute, Oboe, `Cello &
Harpsichord) with whom I have performed and broadcast regularly
throughout the UK and Europe. It was with Collage that my composition
was first given a platform as I have written many pieces for the group.
Collage has a wide and varied repertoire ranging from Baroque Trio
Sonatas to the avant-garde.

London Guildhall

As a composer I have received many commissions for a whole range of
pieces, from children's musicals to full symphonic works. My works have
been performed in such venues as the Royal Albert Hall, the Purcell
Room, St. John's Smith Square, the Festival Hall and the Fairfield
Halls as well as having been broadcast both in the UK and abroad. I am
also the composer of "The Really Easy Oboe Book" (Faber Music), one of
the most widely used books of pieces for young oboists. These pieces
are used by most of the examinations boards (e.g. The Associated Board
& Trinity Guildhall).

As a teacher I have held senior positions in Berkshire (Assistant
Director, South Berkshire Music Centre), East Sussex (Director,
Crowborough Area Music Centre) and West Sussex (Head, Crawley Area
Music Centre).

I am a member of the British Double Reed Society and, in that capacity,
I have coached and directed groups of oboists at regional Double Reed
days as well as at several BDRS Annual Conventions.

During my 30 years in music education I have developed my own ways of
putting across to my pupils the essential techniques of playing the
oboe. It is on that fund of experience that I have drawn in the writing
of this e-book. The development of the internet has provided a
wonderful opportunity, allowing me to pass on that breadth of
experience to a much wider group of budding oboists than ever before.

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.
