Private Oboe and Reedmaking lessons or consultations via Skype
I teach oboe reedmaking using The Illustrated Encyclopedia Of Oboe Reedmaking and/or oboe practice, technique, and performance skills using Barret Oboe Method, Hewitt Method For Oboe, and other traditional materials.
Learn to tie reeds and sharpen knives easily whether you are right- or left-handed.

"Dear Ann, I read one of the sections of your book that you referred to... and realized that my blades have not been perfectly aligned with the staple as recommended. So I have started with this... I had much better results with a small batch of reeds I tested...I am going return to your book to look for more construction errors, and contact you if my efforts are not enough.
Many thanks for all you do. Your book is an essential resource for reed makers. It was perhaps a little technically challenging for me, which is why my first read thru’s did not register this important construction requirement." — professional oboe reed maker
