Oboe Presentation

We are so lucky to have a parent in our school who plays for the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra and Manitoba Chamber Orchestra. Mrs. Wright plays the Oboe and English Horn and treated us to a presentation so that we can get to know these instruments a bit better before we head off to the concert hall on Monday morning. We learned that the Oboe and English Horn use a double reed and Mrs. Wright has to make these reeds herself using tools and a piece of reed which sort of looks like bambo. She also played a few selections for us which were so beautiful to listen to. We would like to to thank her very much for coming in to do this. We will be watching for her on Monday!
