Got to say that they are all over the map with Scheherazade. Interpretation works with words and also with music. We can assume (ass out of you and me) that we know the message. Here we have many different ways to say the same thing. Some took more chances than others I believe. I had that thought with the last one. I do like the first person. She did translate the sensuality of the piece in a way that I most appreciated. That is until John Ferrillo did his thing. Third was a bit "dry". Some sounded more out of a can, and some out of the woods. All in all, after running through this a few times, the tears remained welled up in my eyes. There were none that I did not like. Bravo to the oboists of the world.
Only one question: are the American oboe players ashamed to make vibrato??? The instrument must to sing!!! Imagine Pavarotti singing without vibrato...
So many people here don’t know what the **** they are talking about. I like the comment on American oboists. Get out of here. Ralph Gomberg was regarded as one of the greatest oboists of that era including his brother Harold of the NY Phil. You’re also going to put down John Mack, Ray Still, John DeLancie and Alfred Genovese? Nuts
@@dimitrysafarian-simonenko6555 Marcel Tabateau was from France who taught at The Curtis Institute in Philadelphia. Many of his students some that I mentioned earlier were principals of the major orchestras in the USA. Tabateau was the innovator of the long reed scrape which became the standard in America and tricked through to Europe. Many today in Europe still use the older European short scrape which sounds very bright and nasally. Many oboists today do not play with a proper embouchure or use the diaphragm correctly and scrape their reeds that produce a very hollow and thin weak sound with little projection. Of course it boils down to what you’re used to hearing and therefore accept that this is how the oboe should sound. It’s like wine. The populous drink mediocre wine and never tasted a real fine wine. They drink a common table wine as being the standard and acceptable. The oboe is the most difficult instrument to learn especially to play with a beautiful sound. It’s unique in itself amongst the other instruments. I am second generation Tabateau taught by Ralph Gomberg who was principle oboist of the BSO for 35 years. 1950 to 1985. Once you hear a rich fat centered sound like Gomberg you’ll understand what I’ve been trying to explain. Many are too set in their ways and too stubborn to listen and learn something new.
In my opinion, the WOMEN had the most beautiful tone and interpretations. Excellent!

Your performance of it is my favorite ever! Not overly pushing and pulling the tempo, and beautiful, expressive playing.
Great 👍
In love with Nos. 1, 4, 6, and 7!
Bravo à Mathilde Lebert ( 1ère à jouer )

@@dimitrysafarian-simonenko6555 That’s your opinion only.
The third recording represents everything that is wrong with American oboe playing
Why though? Ralph Gomberg with the BSO recorded in the late 70s-80s (?)
Like what specifically
But the second recording is also American….. how about the third recording represents how much the recording of music has improved?
Dumb comment. Just say you don't like it. There were 2 other American oboe players that played it very differently from him, what does that say?
