The Boring Talks - #51 - Oboe Reeds
Gouging, scraping and chopping. The reporter Chloe Veltman shows us the painstaking art of making an oboe reed, and how it can be the difference between sounding like a singing nightingale, or a belligerent duck.
James Ward introduces another curious talk about a subject that may seem boring, but is actually very interesting.... maybe.
