Tomorrow I play a concerto with a lesser known sonata of Förster. After that I start to study the underneath Aria of JS Bach, BWV 205 on my oboe d'amore.

Als ik zo prednison (exacerbatie astma na infectie) heb gehaald en toch platga, is dit erg interessante literatuur voor mij als barokmuzikant.

Interesting literature to study for me as baroque oboist. #earlymusic #baroquemusic #BaroqueOboe #musician

Guilty at this moment......but....... but wait a minute.... I'm an oboeïst so I should be making reeds right NOW.🤔🤨 #reedmaking #BaroqueOboe

@classicalmusic who is practicing and who is procrastinating today/ at this moment? @musicians

Me, playing on a #BaroqueOboe on a concert pitch of 400. A welmade Rottenburgh copy by Marcel Ponseele. #earlymusic #OboeClass in #Brussels

Rietenhoutjes zijn soms erg mooi getekend. Van dit materiaal maakt een hoboïst rieten. Het is Pijlriet, Arundo Donax. Rieten maken is een grote uitdaging.

From this material reeds for #BaroqueOboe are made, Arundo Donax. This is a beautiful example. Making reeds is a difficult skill to learn.

A beautiful unknown Sonata for Oboe and Continuo from Förster, this is a picture from the manuscript.

Goedemorgen allemaal! Terwijl ik zo met bus en trein voor les en een repetitie naar Brussel ga, bewaakt Pluto het fort. Hier een foto van hem. #Beagles #DogsofMastodon

About a few hours I travel to Brussels for my lesson and rehearsal #BaroqueOboe and Pluto takes care of our house.

And another day to study on the first part of a sonate from Christoph Förster (1693-1745) on one of my oboes. I use an urtext that is based on a manuscript which is saved in the Library of the Conservatory in Brussels. There is only one recording of this piece, by Paul Dombrecht. He was teaching at the Conservatory of Brussels at that time. #earlymusic #BaroqueOboe #baroque_music

Had some problems with #reedmaking for my #baroque_oboe the last few days but with tips and trucs from my teacher #NeleVertommen things got better. I had also the opportunity to see an reed made by #MarcelPonseele (no, I don't share a picture of that in public) Time to study some more music again. I'm working on a sonate from Christoph Förster, currently working on the ornaments and improvisation in part 1.

On my way to the oboe class in Brussels, working on a few pieces (Baroque Chamber Music) for a class concerto. Nele Vertommen is my teacher.
