Whoever came up with the idea to showcase instruments 'up close & personal' - especially the 'specialty' ones - is a saint. I have never enjoyed music as much as I have been lately, especially & primarily, these kinds of instruments. What a beautiful sound to finally so clearly hear.
As a clarinet player, I know hard this piece can be. We played the advanced version in my sophomore year of high school. It can be a embouchure killer.
I feel you Faith along with Leroy Anderson's Clarinet 🍬 Candy & Clarinet Cocktail. Henry Mancini wrote Pie In the Face Polka that is a Butt Kicker. Le Api is the most difficult piece for anyone who plays woodwinds.
I played this song just last week for a concert, but I've been playing oboe for not even a year and I am the only oboist in my orchestra 😢 I can only imagine how it feels to have another oboist playing alongside me. Now I finally heard what both parts together sound like! Great job!
I was the only oboist while I was in school. Then a 26 year hiatus and, going on four years, I'm the only oboist in my community band. Sight reading new pieces is always tricky, "what other instrument am I playing with now?" "Wait ... is this a solo/exposed part?" "No ... I was just lost ... "
@@woonhakk it’s a temporary fix for when your reed is starting to die and close up on you. It just to open up the reed allowing for you to blow more air through it
@@VinOboe thought the oboes looked familiar, I play on a AK as well (great oboe in my very unbiased opinion)! I bought a used one since it was cheaper, and it is my my precious child
In middle school I was the school's first oboe and the school had been open since before I was born so everyone was like "wtf is an oboe" or "it looks like a fancy clarinet"
Yup, I feel this! I played oboe though all of middle and high school, but when I hit college, my classes ate any and all free time. I've been wanting to join the local orchestra for years now, but I'd never have time to practice...
Hahaha I was literally looking for one of these for oboes and couldn’t find one, W video! Glad it popped up on my recommended lol, good timing on the upload too!
I love how casually she's popping those third octave notes out. I realize it's February but this is my favorite one of these ever. You folks are great!
thank you so much for this, this is the only (other than one other but it wasn’t very good) sleigh ride oboe pov on youtube . finally found one! y’all sound great too
both your tone and tuning is amazing! i’m playing this song rn as i’m in my second year playing oboe and i thought it was impossible until i saw this. you’ve given me hope i can play this in a month 😻
As a clarinet I've always liked hearing the oboe but sadly my school doesn't have any oboe players so it's hard to hear it. So seeing this was a really nice look into how the oboes sound, and I must say, you two sound fantastic
I played trumpet 🎺 in band & always focused on trying to perfect the horse 🐎 whiney - I was completely oblivious to the fact that woodwinds had this cute elfin 🧝arrangement going on at the same time
as an oboe play whose concert ended recently there were so many interesting things that you all did with you fingerings and general playing!! you guys are incredible!!
A) AMAZING! B) I'm part of a community band with members in their teens and members in their 90s. I'm so glad I saw this AFTER my concert this year! I knew I was a hack ... I didn't realize how much more practice I really needed! 🙂 Like, I didn't know those trill bits were actually possible! 😀 We play a version arranged by Leroy Anderson, it was interesting expecting to hear one bit, and you playing a slightly different bit!
As a long-ago former oboist, this is great!! I wasn't thinking about the reed issues thing until I saw the gal tug on the reed a bit at the end. You two were tight, together, in tune, and aced both parts really cleanly, none of which always happens, and all through some pretty animated part-writing. Great stuff!!
Bro as a oboe player I could never I always feel like I'm going to pass out like on Santa the barbarian I just can't but it's also because I don't practice 💀
I love music but am not musically gifted. But something about the individual instruments coming together to build something beautiful and intricate, especially for things like big band jazz or some of the really grand Romantic symphonic pieces, really touches me.
Sure you are! I couldn't read music, or even a fingering chart, just a few months ago, but dedication and practice changes that. I encourage you to join a band, or even just study music as a hobby!

Thank you! I always think it’s so interesting to hear the orchestra dissected into its parts
@@VinOboesame! I’m so glad this trend is a thing
This the first time I've seen this trend and I love this!
i think it started with that one video from the trombone's perspective, its such a classic
@@VinOboe Oborific and Obotastic
IT FEELS SO MUCH FASTER WHAT IS GOING ON but you guys killed it
i think its sped up
As a beginner oboe, this look super hard and very impressive.👏👏👏
keep it up! Thank you :)
Keep up the oboe man! I'm a junior now and I performed this on oboe a couple days ago! totally something and brag abt
Yeah seeing your other comments lol
@@owenevilmakings5433 lol I'm everywhere
Yeah I never realized how involved the Oboe part is! Can’t here them back where I sit with the tubas. Very cool.
you both have some amazing tone! job well done.
that’s very kind! Thank you

love this trend :-D
Oboes are superior. I’m currently majoring in oboe performance and we’re not playing sleigh ride in any of my ensembles so I miss this a lot.
Believe it or not, this was my first time performing sleigh ride! You’ll get your chance soon to play it again hopefully
As an oboist myself, I aspire to play with such good tone like you both do.
thank you!
YESS, an oboe version! You guys did great^^
On another note, did you choose the festive reeds on purpose or did it just work out that way 👀
Haha thank you! It just seemed to have worked out that way!
Performed this on oboe a couple days ago, I used a pretty red and green reed for the holidays :)
@@Yello96486hell yeah, love that! I’m playing this in my concert tomorrow but unfortunately I don’t have any red or green reeds 😭
@@nyle-style noiceeeee I've been doin sleigh ride throughout high school (junior now) gl on ur performance
@@VinOboe im a bassoonist and i have a special thread i wrap my reeds in for christmas color this year i played sleigh ride with my christmas reed
You guys are really good at marching each other’s tone and intonation! Great video
Thank you! We play together a lot so we are learning each other’s tendencies! I’m glad you enjoyed
@wildboargaming1858 Yo you got a Mother 3 PFP? Based
As a trombone player sounds that woodwinds play sound so weird yet beautiful at the same time.
I played this song just last week for a concert, but I've been playing oboe for not even a year and I am the only oboist in my orchestra 😢 I can only imagine how it feels to have another oboist playing alongside me. Now I finally heard what both parts together sound like! Great job!
The only oboist in my high school! Feel your pain
I didn’t get to play with another oboist until university! It’s worth the wait!
Same the first 9 years or so I played in an orchestra I was on my own, and it was so good to finally have an other oboist next to me after that.
I was the only oboist while I was in school. Then a 26 year hiatus and, going on four years, I'm the only oboist in my community band. Sight reading new pieces is always tricky, "what other instrument am I playing with now?" "Wait ... is this a solo/exposed part?" "No ... I was just lost ... "
@@SS____________ it's a heavy burden to bear sometimes 🥺
as a clarinettist i can hear my part in the background and all of the oboe cues written on my part 😆😂
I so relate to pinching the reed a lot when it closes. Hahaha! Love seeing this!
haha we do what we can!
I might switch to oboe and I was wondering why you would need to pinch the reed, thanks!
@@woonhakk it’s a temporary fix for when your reed is starting to die and close up on you. It just to open up the reed allowing for you to blow more air through it
@@VinOboe okay thanks, also, how do you know if your reed is about to close?
@@woonhakk You can feel it close down while you play on it, and pinching it gives it a lil extra sometimes. I closed reed results in a quiet sound!
As a fellow oboe player, ur blending and intonation is great! I love how u two sound together. Out of curiosity what brand oboes do u guys play on?
We both play on Loree AKs!
@@VinOboe thought the oboes looked familiar, I play on a AK as well (great oboe in my very unbiased opinion)! I bought a used one since it was cheaper, and it is my my precious child
I play oboe and a lot of people don't even know it exists !! It's really nice to see people post videos of them playing oboe :D
Also we aren't clarinets.
@@Finn_the_Goldfish Omg how could I forget !? We aren't clarinets
@@Finn_the_Goldfish Exactly
The teacher confused me for one since she was new and never worked with one
In middle school I was the school's first oboe and the school had been open since before I was born so everyone was like "wtf is an oboe" or "it looks like a fancy clarinet"
@@carylltheoboist Bruh people always say that to me
there's only three oboists in my school and I'm one of them
I’ve played both oboe parts on this so many times so I was singing along 😅
haha sleigh ride never gets old!
i've.. never heard an oboe that sounded so nice and in tune
Man I miss playing in concerts like this. Been playing oboe for over 7 years but haven't been in an ensemble since covid 😢
Yup, I feel this! I played oboe though all of middle and high school, but when I hit college, my classes ate any and all free time. I've been wanting to join the local orchestra for years now, but I'd never have time to practice...
As a fellow oboist, i aspire to be as good as some of the people i see play on this pieces.
Keep it up!
Just got done with my orchestra concert and played this. You guys Rock. That low B at the End
Honk it out!
You two matched perfectly with the tone of each other
this makes me so happy cause I'm an oboe player myself and I barely ever see and music videos with oboes
Thank you. I definitely not experienced the song from the perspective of these instruments before.
this is written for 110-120 bpm, yall were really pushing it, might have hit 140 at one point. I also play oboe and DAMN
Beautiful job! It's so DIFFICULT to get oboes to play in tune with each other, you guys rocked it!
Hahaha I was literally looking for one of these for oboes and couldn’t find one, W video! Glad it popped up on my recommended lol, good timing on the upload too!
the trills were articulated to beautifully
I love how casually she's popping those third octave notes out. I realize it's February but this is my favorite one of these ever. You folks are great!
thank you so much for this, this is the only (other than one other but it wasn’t very good) sleigh ride oboe pov on youtube . finally found one! y’all sound great too
thank you :)
@@VinOboe ofc!
As a former oboist! I remember playing this song in high school. Great memories!
Oboes are such a bright sounding instrument that add so much to the woodwind section. Underrated if you ask me! You both sound great!
I hate that I could only find a good oboe point of view of sleigh ride after I’ve already played it 😭😭
this is really good! really nice characteristic tone and technical accuracy!
-from an alto saxophone player🎷
Thanks :)
alto team
alto squad :)
:'] I guess I'm the only flute here.
@@kaipie8988 lol
Very nice tones!!! Even the trills, you didn't miss a beat. Love the oboe so much even if I'm a bassist. Merry Christmas to you all!
i went an oboe spiral and now im here great job!!
Many, many, many years ago that was me playing in my high school band. Bravo oboe gang.
This IS the most important instrument in the song!
I just saw the flute version of this a couple days ago so glad to see this version as well!
PLEASE this is a lifesaver!!! im the only oboe in my band and going to be playing sleigh ride this thurs. thank you so so much for making this!!!!
of course!
2:04 is so clean!!!! Amazing. Greetings from the saxophone section! Great job!
both your tone and tuning is amazing! i’m playing this song rn as i’m in my second year playing oboe and i thought it was impossible until i saw this. you’ve given me hope i can play this in a month 😻

See if you can switch....I switched because we had too many clarinets and needed a challenge
I played trumpet 🎺 in band & always focused on trying to perfect the horse 🐎 whiney - I was completely oblivious to the fact that woodwinds had this cute elfin 🧝arrangement going on at the same time
the 50th point of view ive seen of sleigh ride ! i think oboe is the best point of view also that trumpet for real sounded like a horse!
Oh. Y’all cookin! Popping those notes right on out
bro yall are so in tune that isnt fair
that slapstick is LOUD
you guys go so fast omg!! this is the first pov ive seen that goes this fast
haha we were just surprised as you are. We’ve never played it anywhere near as fast until this performance :)
I get to play the oboe 1 part on marimba for my band, it's very fun, I finally don't have to rest for an entire song.
love seeing these pop up in my recommended as the holidays are coming up!! ❤❤
Thank you so much for posting this! I love hearing the different parts of the section in the ensemble. It’s truly a blessing in disguise
i play oboe and i think the hardest part of slay ride is some quick switches between awkward fingerings
The way you guys play so well and in tune, is just amazing! You guys sound so good, keep up the good work!😊
My best friend in college as a music major was an oboist. Y'all are killing it!!! Great job
I'm a flute sitting next to two very vibrant oboes.
Sound exactly like you 😃
Finnaly!!!!! 🤩 I love playing oboe we just did reagion band and I came out second in the reagion top band 👍
as a beginner oboe im astonished how u keep ur embouchure so perfect for tht long
i play oboe for 7th grade band and this is the most impressive thing ive ever seen
So wonderful. Thank you for posting.
as an oboe play whose concert ended recently there were so many interesting things that you all did with you fingerings and general playing!! you guys are incredible!!
Those trills are absolutely stunning! You two did amazing!
Sounds so good I love how you guys went alittle faster then the song usually is
Horn player here, wonderful to hear something other than upbeats or trumpet parts, lol. Wonderful playing, I wish my ensemble had oboes.
omg i love the sound of your oboes!
A) AMAZING!
B) I'm part of a community band with members in their teens and members in their 90s. I'm so glad I saw this AFTER my concert this year! I knew I was a hack ...

Oh my goodness. It never gets better than sitting in front of an oboe !! Killing geese section.
yass oboe representation! you guys sounded amazing :)
Double reeded instruments are so goofy... But still sounds good.
perfect for the Christmas spirit!
As a fellow oboe player, I aspire to have your skill.
I'm learning how to play oboe better this is more amazing than I will do for a while lol
I remember when I played this as oboe, the trills and the final Bb were difficult, but supportable.
Ok imma go grab my oboe I want to play this so bad! You did a wounderful job!
We absolutely need more of this! Amazing!
oboe rep!!! im so freakin happy
I already made a playlist for all the sleigh ride videos 😂
As a long-ago former oboist, this is great!! I wasn't thinking about the reed issues thing until I saw the gal tug on the reed a bit at the end. You two were tight, together, in tune, and aced both parts really cleanly, none of which always happens, and all through some pretty animated part-writing. Great stuff!!
i think this is the first oboe video I've seen!
there’s one from 6 years ago
If there were one instrument i'd kill to master it'd be Oboe!
What a cute oboe player.
Thank you for sharing this! You two play really good together and it sounds really good!
These dudes are tight!!
FINALLY I FOUND AN OBOE VERSION!!
Sounds amazing!! Thank you for posting.
As a oboe player I love the tone and the way you guys blend well together! The whole band sound great too!
Thank you for making this! I think you guys are the only to get a perspective from an oboist.
They sleighed
i have been seeing all of the "sleigh ride from the _____ perspective and they are so awesome to see what part the instruments play!
This is actually really cool. The oboes are ~giving~.
I just want to say thanks because this helped inspired me to switch to oboe. I start playing it next year.❤
Bravissimo!!!!🙏🙏🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
This trend is great!😂😂😂😂 I’m all of a sudden getting so many on my homepage😂😂😂
I think it is really cool that You guys play because I resetly just started to play the oboe at my school in band ❤
You guys did awesome!
you guys have amazing tone
playing this on friday!! Great job guys. Wish me luck!!!
Good Luck!
you guys did such a good job!
Bro as a oboe player I could never I always feel like I'm going to pass out like on Santa the barbarian I just can't but it's also because I don't practice 💀
