All Double Reeds - All the Time!

Welcome to Messiah College's Double Reeds Homepage

Hi! My name is Stephanie Benedict, and I'm a music education major at Messiah College with a focus in Oboe. You might be asking, "What is an oboe?" I could say that it's a double reed instrument, and again, I would get some blank stares. On this homepage, I will try to provide you with information and resources for the amazing (and infamous?) double reed instruments. For now, this site will be dedicated mostly to the oboe and the bassoon, the major and best-known members of the double reed family. Please click on the links below for more information on each instrument or use the photo map below this paragraph.
