Had some problems with #reedmaking for my #baroque_oboe the last few days but with tips and tricks from my teacher #NeleVertommen things got better. I had also the opportunity to see an reed made by #MarcelPonseele (no, I don't share a picture of that in public) Time to study some more music again. I'm working on a sonate from Christoph Förster, currently working on the ornaments and improvisation in part 1.

On my way to the oboe class in Brussels, working on a few pieces (Baroque Chamber Music) for a class concerto. Nele Vertommen is my teacher.
