Howarth Junior

Description

The Howarth Junior is an oboe by Howarth of London, specially developed for young beginners. The body is made from grenadilla wood, just like the brand's professional models, and the keys are silver-plated. The silver-plated conservatoire keywork features a simplified key system down to low C. The closed keys and extended key touches make playing more accessible for smaller hands. As the Junior uses standard oboe fingerings, progressing to a full conservatoire instrument at a later stage is straightforward. The instrument is supplied with a case, so you can start playing straight away. A well-built, carefully considered choice for a young beginner looking to start on an easy-playing oboe.
