![]() ![]() I have recently heard of an audition for an oboe position at a major symphony orchestra where the pieceto be played for the sight reading test was impossible to play without the benefit of a left C# key. For all the effort the goes into making the 'banana key,' I surmise that a long C# could be made instead for just a tiny bit more effort. However, this antique DD5 oboe has a left F AND a long left C#- this keywork (in my estimation) should be standard keywork on all high end oboes. A complete pain to try to play in my experience. No connection exists between the lower joint and the upper joint, no connection from the F# key to the riser vents for C (B#) and Bb (A#).
