@lebelge @jazz jazz oboe is a thing?
@paulmasson @lebelge @jazz There’s oboe (played by Bob Cooper) on the Barney Kessel album Kessel Plays Standards which was recorded in 1956

@leRoux @paulmasson @jazz

Oboe in jazz is not common, but it does exist. There is even a doctoral dissertation on the subject: "A History and Discography of the Oboe in Jazz" by Kimberly Everett Ganong
