Oboe & Bassoon
Double Reed instrumentalists at the 黑料社app can expect to have weekly hour-long private lessons on their major instrument. Additionally, reed making classes for both Oboe and Bassoon are available and encouraged.
Double reed instrumentalists can expect to perform in university ensembles such as
the Wind Symphony (Concert Band/Wind Ensemble) and the Fairbanks Symphony Orchestra.
Seat placement is determined by audition each semester. Other performance opportunities
such as chamber ensembles: duos, trios, quintets, etc. will be facilitated and coordinated
for students by need and availability.
