How do you march with an oboe? My understanding is that oboe reeds are too fragile, though I heard something about an adapter that lets you play oboe with a saxophone reed...

Me, I play bassoon and I'm in pit for marching season though my private instructor is hell-bent on my learning tenor sax. o_O;

I've already marched with my oboe twice (in Middle School, we march in this parade every year)and it's really fun! It IS quite hard to do though. You need to cary, like, 5 or 6 extra reeds in your pocket. You also need to be able to march without your instrament moving too much so you don't break your reed. It's really fun because I had to march in front of the whole band last year and I wasn't playing half the time (because oboes have a lot of rests...you know) and, the time I wasn't playing, I was walking backwards directing the band! The other BD's (one for each school, our schools marched together) were on the side and I was just mimicking them. It was so fun! (until I stepped in horse poo... sweatdrop )I had the half of the band that never plays, playing! YAY!! lol I also tought the part of the band that couldn't play how to make it look like they were playing. It made me feel special. lol I don't think my bd will let me do that this year but it's still fun to march with the oboe because you get a huge group of people together on the day of the parade and, as you're marching past, have them yell, "GO OBOE!!! WOOOOOO!!!" lol then they all spread out ahead of you and every once in a while, you'd hear, "Oboes rule!" or "the oboe is my queen!" Then, afterwards, they'd all be waiting for you and ask you to sign their foreheads and their shoes (of course this is all set up before hand lol) we did that one year and the BD got mad at me because he didn't like me and he didn't like me getting attention. It was really fun though!

Les Mis is (in my opinion) the best musical ever. the actual name is Les miserables. it's kind of a long story but when you get it it's really good.

watch the 10th aniversary at Royal Albert Hall. They have a full orchestra, not just the pit usuals (which doesn't include bassoon, though it does have oboe)

She meant Les Miserables

Les Mis is a more common nickname in artsier circles ^ ^

You get a plastic reed to march with the oboe.... You would sound like crap, but the reed wouldn't be a fragile.... An adapter... Wow! It would be so cool to marching with an oboe!!!! I would love that!!!!!!!!!!!
