I’ve always enjoyed the Dring trio, but I’m not familiar with this work. Sweet, lovely movement.
Bryanne Presley, Oboe
Teng-Kuan Wang, Piano
Antonio Vivaldi sonata for Oboe and Continuo in c minor, RV53
In-Gun Hwang (14 years old at the time of this recording, according to the YouTube page)
Nice work … nice playing.
Kenneth Fuchs: Eventide
Kevin Chavez, English horn; Carol Ann Aicher, piano
I haven’t put any of these up for a while. But I’ve not done much of anything for a while! I’d tell you that will change but I don’t want to make promises I can’t keep.
But here … have a Recital Encore. The player is 14 year old In-Gun Hwang.
Saint Saëns: Oboe Sonata
André Previn: Trio for Oboe, Bassoon and Piano
Third movement: Jaunty

Closer to home … Joshua Lauretig is from the Cleveland area and I believe he’s 16 years old. I’ve never heard of the work or composer before, so this is also a “New To My Ears” work.
Josh Lauretig, oboe
Elizabeth DeMio, piano
The video info box tells us this:
oboe : HyunJung(Amy) Song
2011-28-may Kumho Prodigy concert. Seoul,South Korea
She is 13 years old who live in Seoul.
She studies oboe in Yewon middle school in Seoul.
This is her first solo recital.
Please enjoy it!
Handel:
I’ve had a number of students, from high school through university level play the Saint Saëns. Whenever I ask them to keep the book closed and play the beginning of each movement by memory (my way of checking to see if they even have a clue what the first note is, for one thing) they act as if I’m insane. Hah!
Saint Saëns:
… and let’s change our outfit, shall we? ;-)
Poulenc:
Pasculli:
This young player is so musical … wow. Just … wow!
Thanks to Robin Tropper for bringing this to my attention.
Some oboe players having fun! Take THAT, you crazy bassoonists.
See? We can be fun too.
Eventually.
I haven’t been putting many recital encores up recently. Guess I should look through YouTube a bit more for these. This is a fun one … love me some Piazzolla!
Astor Piazzola: Tango Etude No. 3
Liz Plummer, oboist
Very fun. (There are a couple of references they don’t note … can you catch ‘em?)
This is by Arne Running. He and I have communicated in the past; he has some very clever pieces that I think are great for recitals.
Quodlibet from “Aria and Quodlibet” by Arne Running. Performed by Stephanie Patterson (Oboe), Heather McGarvey (English Horn), and Rachel Bicheler (Flash Cards) at SUNY Fredonia’s Woodwind Area Recital on 11/15/10.

I received a lovely note (you can read a portion below) from Bryan Walker asking if I’d post his video. I’m more than happy to do this. There are some I might opt to not post, but I think this is worth a listen! Again, I do encourage readers (and reeders) to fill me in on their videos in case I miss some. I can’t always keep up with new videos online.
Here’s what Bryan wrote:
I am frequent reader of your blog and I keenly remember you encouraged your followers to send you links to recital performances. Well earlier this month I attended Tom Stacy’s seminar and I had a friend record my recital performance. I played the 3rd of the Drei Stucke by Jan Koetsier, which was transcribed by Lou Rosenblatt. I put my performance on youtube for 2 reasons, to get feedback on my playing and to get some exposure for this great piece! I would be honored to grace the “wall” of your blog, but if you decided against posting my video I won’t be offended!
It sounds as if Bryan is up for critique. Please, though, be kind if you opt to make criticisms. Me? I am just enjoying it! :-)
Drei Stucke by Jan Koetsier
Mov. 3: Böhmische Serenade
Transcribed by Louis Rosenblatt
Bryan M. Walker: English Horn
Dr. Teddy Neidermaier: Piano
As I’ve mentioned before, my “Recital Encore” entries aren’t always of advanced players. Young players deserve some mention as well. Listen to the rhythm and the trills by this young player! I’m impressed. This student has been playing oboe for five months and I believe he’s 10 years old. Bravo, I say! :-)
