A while ago, while trying to convince a student that she does not have bad tone (because some “expert” during honor bands said she does), I came across this website. It is a great resource for hearing what Oboists sound like. Anyhow, I got interested in the “Azevedo arr., rec. 1999” that Alex Klein did. Yes, THAT Alex Klein.

Anyhow, the album it is off of is Brazilian Rhapsody by Daniel Barenboim and the song is actually called “Pedacinhos Do Ceu”. The album is partially available on iTunes, but the fore mentioned song is NOT. Anyhow, it is a great album, and I totally love the oboe playing on it. Excellent. Plus, you can get it for like 5 bucks used.
