Double Reed Monthly Specials
For Oboe and English Horn and Bassoon Players
Bocal Music is back! Bocal Music Editions have been virtually non-existent for the last six years, really nearly a decade. Alan Hawkins who is responsible for these wonderful double reed editions, and indeed the current popularity of double reed ensembles, has been ill and as his stock has run it has not been reprinted. His long time colleague, Bruce Gbur, has now taken over publication and distribution of these editions so we now again have a FULL STOCK OF BOCAL MUSIC EDITIONS! They are on the shelf and ready to go out to you immediately! Check the web On-line Catalog for your favorites. |

Need Graduation Gift for a Special Oboist or Bassoonist? How about a DRShop Gift Certificate? Here are two really special books – buy two, one for you, one to give. Marcel Tabuteau by Liala Storch -- on line for $24.95. I can’t begin to tell you how I treasure this special book! It has blown me away! It is a history of wind playing, an in depth look at where we are as wind players and how we got to this point in less than a century. It is a must read for any serious oboist! It also gives back ground on Tabuteau’s number system for phrase building, which has permeated all of wind playing and teaching. Another Important Book: Written by bassoonist David McGill Sound in Motion will help you apply Tabuteau’s teachings to your own playing and give you that edge on your next audition. This is as important as ‘The Art of Wind Playing’ by Arthur Weisburg, which we also have available. And a third: Just released and the most valuable book to date on oboe reed making. By understanding how to build a reed with consistency, stability, yet flexibility, your playing will jump to the next level in one short summer! Gouge, Shape and Scrape, a Complete Guide to the Oboe Reed, by Valarie Anderson.
