Leading brands in our range
We offer oboes from renowned brands including Adler, Fossati, Howarth, Loree, Marigaux, Mönnig and Rigoutat. Each brand has its own distinctive character in terms of tone, projection and response. As a result, no two oboes play or sound exactly alike, allowing you to choose an instrument that suits the music you play and your playing level. The oboe that suits you best depends on your level, your repertoire and the sound you are looking for.
One oboe produces a warm, rich tone, while another stands out for its clear projection and quick response. By comparing models from different brands side by side, you will immediately hear the differences. This makes it easier to find the oboe that matches your playing style and tonal preferences, whether you are just starting out or already performing at an advanced level.
Try your oboe at your own pace
In our shops, you can try out a range of oboes in spacious testing rooms. This allows you to hear and feel the differences between the models before making your choice. Compare instruments side by side and experience how they respond to your playing style, breath support and embouchure. Our staff can assist you in Dutch, English or German. Please make an appointment in advance so that the instrument is ready for you at the appropriate location.
