Principles not rules
• The goal is to compose with a rhetorical
intent: creating information/message in a way
that responds to the needs of the info
producers and users
• There is no agreement on a single,
authoritative set of principles of design
• Gestalt offers a framework that we can apply
to the practice of visual design
What is Gestalt Theory
• Gestalt theory focuses on the mind’s perceptive
processes
• The word "Gestalt" has no direct translation in English,
but refers to "a way a thing has been gestellt ; i.e.,
‘placed,’ or ‘put together’";
• Common translations include "form" and "shape"

Some Gestalt principles
Figure-Ground: figure is focus; ground is “background”
Symmetry: parallel or balanced composition of elements
Similarity: conceptually related elements are presented in consistent
visual shapes
Closure: distinct and intentional grouping to reinforce or contrast
conceptual meaning
Proximity: elements that are closer to each other are related
conceptually, those that are further apart are dissimilar
Continuation: alignment of elements provides conceptual and
hierarchical relationships
Squinting
Figure-Ground
• Figure is the main focus
of the picture

fruit are the main focus
• Ground is the
background supporting
the figure
– The blurriness of the background
emphases the main focus to be
the orange juice

instrument. However, a prior experience on piano or another instrument
is a great advantage.
The student who already has a basic knowledge of rhythm and notation
is better able to concentrate on the specific problems of the oboe and
the reed.
The hand positions do not require a large stretch. The embouchure can
adapt to both small and large lips. Larger lips seem to adapt more easily
than thin lips. Many students make good progress even with braces on
their teeth.
When a student is in late elementary or junior high school, it is an ideal
time for them to start the oboe. It’s important that the student be
mature enough to handle both the instrument and the reed with care.
Careful handling of the reed is basic, or both the student and the teacher
will be continually frustrated!

(see section Soaking the Reed).
s Cradle the upper joint in the left hand. Place the right
thumb on the E key of the second joint and carefully
maneuver the two parts together, gently pushing and
in a clockwise direction until the bridge mechanism is
properly aligned. Be careful not to bump the “arm”
above the F# key.
s Place the right thumb on the bell key. This holds it up
and out of the way while pushing and twisting the bell
into the lower joint. (Left-handed people should reverse
hands in the assembly procedures).
s The reed is put in last. It will work best when pushed all
the way to the stopping shoulder.
s When putting the oboe away, put the reed into the
reed case first. To separate the oboe, reverse the
assembly procedures. Always clean out the oboe with
a soft cloth swab, a Fox silk swab or a turkey feather.
If using a swab, be sure to drop the weight into the
large end of the upper joint. A Fox silk swab should
be pulled all the way through the upper joint, but if a
soft cloth swab is used, it should be pulled until slightly
snug and then removed from the large end. It is
extremely important to avoid wedging a cloth swab
in the small end of the upper joint.
s Never subject the wooden oboe to any extremes of
temperature. To reduce the chance of cracking the
body, the instrument should be allowed to warm to
room temperature before playing it. To prevent dust
and lint from settling into the mechanism, it is important
to frequently dust the mechanism. A soft watercolor
brush is ideal for this. The joints of the key mechanism
should be oiled every few months. A capillary oiler
works very well. However, too much oil is worse than
none at all. Too much oil can cause the pads to stick.
If the joints are too tight, use a little cork grease to
make it assemble more easily.

EMBOUCHURE
The oboe
embouchure is
formed between
the teeth, not in front
of them. In forming a
proper embouchure,
the tip of the reed is
positioned midway on
the lower lip. As a
breath is taken, the
lower lip is rolled in
over the lower teeth.
The upper lip is
pulled down and in
over the upper teeth,
producing a double
lip embouchure.
When properly done, just the tip of the reed should be
felt by the tongue inside the lips. The corners of the lips
should not be pulled outward, but focused inward. Using
the word “home”, the circular concept of a good
embouchure can be visualized. Care must be taken not to
have pockets of air between cheeks or lips and the teeth.
The embouchure must be thought of as “live”. It must
function to control pitch, dynamics and tone color. In the
upper octave, the lips and reed are rolled in slightly to
control pitch. The lips are opened slightly for increase in
dynamics. The amount of reed behind the lips is important
in determining tone color. Too much insertion of the reed
results in a shrill, bright tone. The reed is easiest to control
at the tip, where the cane is thinnest.
Care must be taken in the choice of the reed. Too strong a
reed opening will cause the lips to tire quickly, resulting in
a loss of control. Conversely, a weak reed may lack a good
dynamic range or a tone with good projection.
Normally, the instrument is held at a 45 degree angle from
the body. However, since not all of us have the same facial
structure and dental alignment, it is useful to experiment a
bit, raising or lowering the instrument slightly, to achieve
the best tonal result.

SOAKING THE REED
Dip the reed in water, shake off the excess water and let it stand for about
two minutes before playing on it. It is not necessary to soak the reed by letting
it stand in water. Saliva works well too.
REED CASES
It is important to have a reed case that supports the reed in such a way that
nothing can damage the delicate tip. It should also allow for air circulation
around the reed to keep it dry when not in use. There are commercial reed
cases available or cases can be made by the student. Do not use the plastic
tubes in which some commercial reeds are packaged as reed cases, unless
some holes are provided to permit drying of the reed.
The embouchure cannot function
properly unless a strong, focused
stream of air provides a steady res-
onant tone. A good embouchure
should help the performer in the
goal of true musical excellence.

THE COMMERCIAL REED
Serious students of the oboe will begin learning the reed
making process as soon as they are old enough and careful
enough to manage the necessary tools. If reeds are not
available from a private teacher or local player, attempt to
purchase the American or “long scrape” reed.
While the French scrape is more easily obtained, there are
a variety of “long scrape” style reeds available. Almost all
professional oboists in the United States now use some
variation of the “long scrape”. The thinner, shorter tip may be
more fragile, but the pleasant tone quality they produce will
make the extra care the reed takes very worthwhile.
The grading of oboe reeds as soft, medium or hard has little
relationship to the fact and varies from one manufacturer to
another. Many commercial reeds are too soft. Try reeds from
several manufacturers to determine which is most consistent
and best suited to your instrument and style of playing.
There should be some “resistance” in the reed to enable the
player to play with good breath support.

It is important to know the techniques used in adjusting
commercial reeds.
The following four pieces of simple equipment are essential
for students to begin adjusting reeds:
A SHARP KNIFE:
A sharp knife for scraping the reed is the most important
tool. It can be purchased from reed making suppliers or
handmade. The blade may be either hollow ground or with a
beveled edge. A sharpening stone and honing oil are also
important. It is necessary to keep the knife-edge sharp and
free from nicks.
PLAQUE:
The plaque is a small piece of metal that is inserted
between the blades of the reed while scraping.
It supports the blades. Plaques are available
commercially or they can be handmade
from a single-edge razor blade.
ADJUSTING THE COMMERCIAL OBOE REED
CUTTING BLOCK:
The cutting block is used to
support the tip of the reed
while clipping it with the knife.
They are available commercially or can be handmade
from a piece of hardwood that has been smoothly
sanded to eliminate all grooves.
FISHSKIN:
Commercially, fishskin is called “Goldbeaters Skin”. It is
used to seal the sides of the reed without adding weight
to the reed. Added weight will inhibit the reed’s vibrating
qualities. A reed must not leak air below the portion
that is in the mouth. Cut a strip of fishskin about 11
⁄2”
by 1/4”. While slightly moistened, pull the strip of fish-
skin tightly around the reed, starting midway or less up
the reed. Pull tightly around the reed spiraling down-
ward until it overlaps the top of the winding thread. Do
not over moisten. If the fishskin is too wet it will shrivel
up and disappear. A little practice is necessary to handle
it correctly.
12. 12
PITCH OF THE REED
Pitch of the reed is determined by:
1. LENGTH of the reed – The reed should play in tune
when it is inserted into the oboe to the stopping
point. 70-72mm is a good average total reed length
for most instruments and players.
2. OPENING of the reed is equally important. Reed
openings can be easily adjusted.
A reed that is too open will usually play flat. A reed which
has a too-closed opening will tend to be sharper in pitch.
Old and worn-out reeds become more closed and
become too sharp in pitch.
The opening of the reed is an important factor for other
reasons as well. If a reed is too open, players are forced
to “bite”, whether they are aware of it or not, and the
embouchure will quickly fatigue. If the reed is too-closed,
it is impossible to blow into it with adequate breath
support.
Too open
Too closed
Correct opening
13. 13
A. IF THE REED IS TOO SHARP –
1. The reed may be too short. Scrape a little more wood from
the back of the reed.
2. The reed opening is too closed. There is no remedy for
correcting this. One may apply wire, but this can have an
adverse affect on the vibrating qualities of the reed.
3. The reed can be pulled out of the instrument a small amount
before it adversely affects the intonation of the instrument.
B. IF REED IS TOO FLAT –
1. Check to see if the reed is split. A cracked/split reed is
often flat.
2. The reed is tool long. Cut off the reed about 1mm or less.
Thin just the end of the reed tip to make it respond. If it is
still flat, repeat this procedure a few times. It is sometimes
necessary to cut off the entire tip and scrape a new one in
order to make the reed respond.
3. Cane is too wide. Making the reed shorter might compensate.
4. Opening is too large. If it seems to respond well, try holding
the tip of the well-soaked reed closed for several seconds
TIPS FOR SOLVING SPECIFIC REED PROBLEMS:
between the fingers. This will weaken the reed slightly.
Repeat this procedure a few times. If unsuccessful, it
will be necessary to scrape the shoulders a slight amount.
C. THE REED IS STIFF, STUFFY OR SLOW
TO RESPOND –
1. Make the very end of the reed tip thinner.
2. Remove a little wood from behind the reed tip.
3. If it appears that the back is still too thick, scrape a bit
more off, particularly if the low notes do not respond.
Be careful not to remove the “backbone” or the reed
will become flat, or the octaves will be flat, forcing the
player to “bite”.
D. THE REED IS TOO FREE AND EASY TO BLOW –
1. Too much wood has already been taken out of the reed
or the tip may be too thin. Clip the tip and readjust.
2. Proceed as in B-2 above. It is possible that the reed will
become too short and sharp while doing this. If this
happens, discard the reed and try another. You can
always take more wood out of a reed but obviously it is
impossible to put it back.

OBOE FINGERING CHART
The following is a basic fingering chart that is
used for tuning Fox and Renard oboes. The oboe
has approximately a 21
⁄2 octave range and very
few alternate fingerings. The one exception is
“Forked F”. Many students brought up in a band
program acquire the habit of using only the
“Forked F” fingering. “Forked F” is an alternate
fingering to be used when necessary: when “F”
occurs before or after E , D, C , low C, low B or
B . The basic fingering for “F” (or the left “F” key
on those instruments that have it) produces better
intonation and noticeably better tone quality.
