Retailers/Suppliers

My eBay listings - I also offer my reeds for sale on eBay. You can also read feedback from my customers here.

Lafayette Music - In Lafayette, Colorado, which is not far from Boulder. They are the first brick-and-mortar retail location to carry my reeds. 

Marigaux Oboes - For those who don't know, I play on a Marigaux. They have an interesting new model called the M2; I haven't tried it yet, but I hope to do that soon.

Forrests Music - I buy many different supplies from Forrests - staples, reed mailing tubes, knives, and sharpening equipment.

Weber Reeds - I just bought some English Horn staples from David. The prices are very reasonable, and he knows his stuff!

RDG Woodwinds - My current first choice in my stock of cane.

Le Roseau Chantant - A current cane supplier.

K-Ge Reeds - Another current cane supplier.

Covey Oboes - I just love this shop. They are kind of far away from me now, but whenever I go home to Knoxville I try to visit them.

Affiliate Links

  The Woodwind and Brasswind - Fantastic for equipment such as tuners, metronomes, neckstraps, or cases. Very reasonable prices. They are running a promotion right now for free shipping with orders of more than $30.00.

 iTunes - There is a large classical library here, and it's so easy to download singular tracks of the excerpt that you need for an audition, instead of having to buy entire albums. There are also many, many free podcasts.

 MusicNotes.com - A place where you can find downloadable sheet music.  I've used it before, when I had to come up with some music for a church service fairly quickly.

Friends

Bill Roscoe Oboe Reeds - Bill is known for his profiled oboe cane. Unfortunately, I haven't tried it. He has a fantastic reputation, so I am sure it's great. He's in Tennessee, in a pretty little town called Erwin.

Patty Mitchell - Patty is a very busy oboist in the SF Bay Area, and she has a wealth of information on her website. Audition lists, personnel rosters for major symphonies, and lots of pedagogical information.

Carlos Coelho - Carlos is known for his repair skill, and he sells Lorée instruments. He's based in Indianapolis.
