The sounds at 7:22 are because he is blowing in the upper holes of the oboe to expell the saliva. Saliva stuck there can affect the sound higher notes. It is not actually saliva, just water condensation from human breath. BTW superb performance
Just got to work this up with a young oboist for her Oberlin junior recital. It’s quite fun for the pianist, a few tricky bits, but overall straightforward passagework. Saint-saëns was not known for chromaticism.
This is a wonderful performance. Beautiful tone and interpretation. As I’ve aged I have mainly Been playing piano and organ. Hearing this reminds me of the joy and the frustration of playing the instrument. Listening transported me to another world! Thank you!
I have played this utterly charming piece at London,s Wigmore Hall. Used. My Kreul instrument for the lovely slow movement. Can,t imagine anyone out there my age🛏 Maggie Martelli
I was going to perform this my senior year of high school for contest and then the day before, our contest was cancelled due to the weather. I didn't get to receive my final rating as a high school student, of which my teacher was convinced would be a superior... At least I learned the piece?
This will haunt you the rest of your life. I’m 38 and still suffer from such missed opportunities in my short time as a student oboist. For me it was the Vaughn Williams concerto, and evening then only the first movement. But also, what a wonderful bittersweet memory.
In my opinion those movements are a little different, but not enough if they ask for "Two pieces with contrasting tempos". Just go with one and three and hope for the best!!!!!!! Don't take my comment too serious because i'm still a student! LOl
It's fast because despite the romantic period, French musicians, especially my Prof. Maurice Bourgue gave me the idea of such composition as a fresh, light and lively Sonata, it is not a German romantic composition, and French people play fast as they speak. It is not a casual random Tempo.
I respect your opinion and while I do agree to respect the composer I feel as long as you are still playing in the style you can interpret it in anyway you want(with some guidelines)

Carlos M I noticed that too, actually
it's one of the most annoying thing when water stuck there, i use cigarettes sheet
I was kind of wondering what that noise was. I hate it when condensation affects my higher notes.
Not saliva it’s condensation xxx
@@tommax8520 omg stop
What a beautiful and radiant performance by the oboist. So pure and simple.
I like the recording, just a bit too fast in my opinion. Especially the ad libitum section during the second movement.
agreed! Technically brilliant. But the 'slower' sumptuous sections were too fast.
0:50 I’m glad Saint-Saëns gave oboists a break after that one
5:01, what a good transition, almost didnt hear it without seeing the score!

Sounds absolutely beautiful:) well done
Rhea J u look beautiful
Beautiful European oboe sound! Just marvelous!
Beautiful! I love oboe and miss mine. It’s time to get another one especially after hearing this! Absolutely incredible performance and so inspiring!
Hey! Just out of curiosity, did you get another oboe?
Now that is virtuosic musicianship. And such a marvelous, extra special sonata! Are all oboists familiar with it?
Very familiar
extremely familiar
MERCI ! En + : avec les notes ! C'est vraiment gentil de votre part = très apprécié ! Bcp de plaisir. . .
Favoloso Guido Ghetti grande perfomance !!!

Wonderful! You gave me a piece to work toward. Very nice!
I remember playing this piece for my exam
C'était véritablement de la dentelle superbe
The part that scares me about Movement 2 is the Allegretto, not the ad libitum.
I came here to see them "Hot Boys". Lol
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
teeheehee!
I need to know for an audition. Are movements I and II contrasting. I’m more confident in those two than I am in I and III
In my opinion those movements are a little different, but not enough if they ask for "Two pieces with contrasting tempos". Just go with one and three and hope for the best!!!!!!!

It is not hard to play
Warum nur die Oboenstimme?? Sehr kurz gedacht....
I thought that, too. I wanted to see the piano score in conjunction with the oboe.

Sorry,this is to fast. Why so many players do this sonata so fast. That is for me antimusicaly,show more respect for the composer. Oboplayer..
