Since you returned my Selmer Signet oboe to me, I have been playing it regularly and have performed high-range, mid-range, and low-range solo and woodwind trio (oboe, clarinet, flute) pieces in our church (with as many as 750 attendees at some Masses).
After I became accustomed to playing the instrument again, I have come to love playing it. Your complete overhaul was exactly what I needed.
