The intermediate oboist should find these solos immediately accessible and enjoyable to play. The emphasis should be on developing a well supported and a cantabile style of playing. The teacher and student should find ample opportunity to develop solid musicianship and a beautiful characteristic oboe tone quality. All of the solos are available on CD and they are also published for B-flat clarinet.

Additionally, Dr. Mitzi D. Groom has adapted the piano accompaniment, to be playable by an intermediate level pianist, which would allow the oboist to play duets with someone of their age or an amateur adult, such as a parent.
