Oboe player
Oboe players are like the cool kids who also do homework. They’re either talking your ear off or ignoring you completely. They’re smart, funny, and will keep you laughing even when they’re trying to figure out how to play a song while also making their reed not cry.
I asked my oboe player friend why she’s so calm, and she said, 'I’ve been dealing with reeds for 10 years.'
My oboe player brother can talk about alternate fingerings like it’s a religion.
She laughed at my joke about reeds being the most dramatic things in the world.
