Loree "AK" Oboe OJ05

Near mint condition. One of the sweetest sounding Loree AK oboes I have ever encountered. Beautiful instrument in every respect...

Hans Kreul/Miraphone Oboe

All cork pads, nylon tip adjustment screws installed throughout.Very good + condition. Was cracked in the upper joint, expertly repaired- no leaks. Easy playing, big somewhat "dark" sound -not as dark as the Kreul "Gordet" model however. Utterly stable scale, easy response throughout. Exceedingly "forgiving"- "locks onto" pitch centers.This oboe will suit a student with rather large hands.

Robert Oboe

Made in Paris circa 1955. Predecessor of the Laubin "Barre'" oboe. Robert was Loree's main competition in the 1930s. Just overhauled by Stacy Fortiner: all cork pads, nylon tip adjustment screws installed throughout, keys fitted. This Robert oboe plays a lot like a late "A" series Loree oboe, and the keywork bears a striking resemblace to the prewar Loree oboes as well. This oboe has a "silvery sweet" tone. Ideal for a student with rather small hands.

Barre Oboe by Laubin circa 1977

This oboe has a somewhat bright, though "sprightly" and "full" sweet sound. Just overhauled by Paul Woltz, nylon tips installed throughout, all cork pads.This oboe has an excellent scale and response. The highest harmonic register is absolutely exceptional. Best suited for a student with small to medium size hands.
