Kim Haan, oboist

Don't worry so much about the staples - the detail is in the cane - how well it has been prepared (gouged and shaped) and how well you scrape it.

This is a teaching and rehabilitation day.

i've overdone it digging in the garden so have some back pain which was sorted out by stretching and core strengthening and a trip to my masseuse.

I'll shortly post some exercises for musicians relevant to instrumentalists and vocalists.
