RNCM Young Oboes

Workshops for oboes players aged 8 – 18 with at least one year of playing experience, featuring a range of exciting activities.

What is RNCM Young Oboes?

RNCM Young Oboes is a series of free workshops on oboe playing led by JRNCM oboe tutor David Cowdy and freelance oboist and tutor Bethan Roberts. It is a chance to meet other oboe players and get expert tuition and advice on a range of topics. The sessions are participatory so expect plenty of playing.

What happens during the workshop?

During the workshops you will be doing lots of oboe playing, developing your technique and musicianship and exploring all things oboe! Sessions vary but will often include:

  • Ensemble playing
  • Group workshops on various aspects of technique
  • Guest tutors and performers
  • Dalcroze Eurhythmic
  • Masterclasses on solo performance
  • Learning about reeds

Some workshops will run alongside RNCM Young Bassoons, giving the opportunity to explore the exciting double reed ensemble repertoire.

Who can take part?

Anyone aged 8 – 18 with at least one year of playing experience.
