This is what happens when you play double reed instruments with @josh_guehring and Rylie Martin 😂😂😂😂 #doublereed #bassoon #oboe #collegelife #musicmajorlife (at Southeast Missouri State University) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnZw6VwHdb-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=b16xsmn0a84f

stay tuned! i tell my instrument, at the start of a 40 bar rest before a solo. it does not. a cold breeze has blown through. i pick up my instrument to play the solo, and the first note is flat. people get up to leave. my conductor frowns at me, motioning for me to raise my pitch. i overcompensate, and the rest of the solo is sharp. a baby has started crying.

you ever be away from your instrument for so long that you start finding ways to practise like maintaining embouchure by,,,,fcukgin,,,,,,,,,,,holding a thermometer up with your lips
