How I did it: I started taking lessons when I had just finished fourth grade. For the first time in 7th grade, I joined a chamber orchestra in my county, which progressed my group playing skills (and ability to understand conductors) greatly. By the time I was entering high school, I knew almost every note possible, and was considering a career in music.
I went to music camps (yes, plural) every summer, which offered me access to other instruments (ex: flute, tenor saxophone, bass guitar, vocals, piano...) and expanded my skill. I became involved in groups in my school district, and also in my local conservatory, which also hosted the chamber orchestra, which I am still in.
Good luck!
I started oboe a couple days ago and have wanted to play for awhile now. Throughout my life I’ve played piano, violin, viola, and guitar, but oboe was the one I truly wanted to do. It’s beautiful tone was very alluring and I was also wanting a challenge. I think I’m doing well so far, and I can’t wait to be able to really play well.
This is one of my biggest dreams, I’ll get a simple oboe next month and I’ll learn on my own, it doesn’t matter how much time it will take.

When I was in elementary school, I wanted to play the oboe, however, my band director suggested the clarinet because it is easier. When I was in Junior High, I wanted to play the oboe, again “How about the flute?” (I found out later our director only wanted students to play instruments that could be utilized in the marching band which was required for those in concert band because we were a small school).
Well, guess what? I’m an adult now and I can do what I want!! I took one semester of lessons as an undergrad and I am now looking for private instruction.
This is going to stay on my list until I am good enough to play in a community orchestra and/or I graduate to the English Horn.
oboe is by far the most expensive, most hard to play instrument in the whole band. on top of sounding like a dying duck when you just start, your reeds break almost every other day which gets really annoying since they are pretty expensive.
The only good think about the oboe is that it is a on-high-demand instrument.
It’ll take you a while to stop sounding like a duck being strangled, and even longer to achieve a truly beautiful tone but once you do you’ll be very happy with yourself for having mastered one of the hardest instruments.
i’m a freshman in high school, and i’ve been playing for three years.
the oboe is hands down the most expressive, dynamic, beautiful instrument in the whole band.

Playing the oboe is one of those talents which not many people can say they have accomplished. It is a difficult instrument to learn, so I would suggest taking lessons.
I’ve wanted to play the oboe since 5th grade… I’m a sophomore in high school and I started a few days ago.
It’s tough.
