Sarah Hamilton, Aaron Hill: 12 Soon-To-Be Famous Studies for Oboe

Whether a student is preparing for a public recital performance, a college entrance audition, a solo competition, a state honor ensemble, or their individual oboe lessons, the 21st century has brought the classical music world, sometimes eagerly and sometimes kicking and screaming, into a clamoring desire to produce and hear more diverse music. Whether the diversity comes from the identities of the composers or from their global styles and influences, we hear significant demand from students and teachers alike to broaden our choices of musical experiences. The ubiquity of Franz Wilhelm Ferling's 48 Famous Studies for Oboe underscores the value in having oboe etudes be thoroughly performable pieces in their own right. Over the course of being oboe professors for decades, we seek to augment the skills cultivated in Ferlings volume with a varied collection of living voices writing for oboists at a similar developmental level. 60 pages
