Course contents:

This course provides students with technique, tone quality, intonation and performance skills to be able to stand up to competition in the solo, chamber and orchestral fields. This course guides the students to independence, realizing their own ideas and defending their thought. This is the basis of instruction in this course. Development of one's perosnality is a priority. All issues regarding playing the oboe are developed in etudes - L. Bleuzet, E. Bozza with an emphasis on those deficiencies not yet mastered. If the technical level allows, double staccato instruction begins. This is the principle in which the tongue is set once for two sequential tones. The second is sounded by the air current. If the simple staccato is not in order, double staccato is taught in the subsequent course. Recital compositions are oriented towards works with greater imagination where the student must join in with their own thoughts and ideas - I. Hurnik, V. Williams, W.A. Mozart.
