narrowing tip of the heart towards the tip, bright corners
marked slope of the sides towards the tip

optimal compromise between a good attack, a dark sound and a good stability of
the high register

heart
sides
back
sound

narrowing tip of the heart towards the tip, bright corners, similar to O08
very accentuated increase of lateral thickness
marked spine from the tip to the base with maximal height
notedly dark sound ("german orchestral scrape"), very stable, less flexible
demanding forced embouchure

like O08
accentuated increase, to the base particularly
marked spine, between O08 and O09, ascending from the heart to the base
dark sound, quite good flexibility even so

heart as a narrow, high crest, flexibility of the edges
marked slope of the sides towards the tip

sound

sharp tip of the heart, attack region with rapid slope in the shape of an obtuse angle
slope ot the sides relatively flat
rapid rise to the centre crest
dark sound, flexible attack

bright sound, big flexibility (analogous O04)

medium scrape, stable, sound medium-bright, soloistical (analogous O08)

marked heart, narrow attack, dark sound, less flexibility (analogous O07)

Center crest and clearly standing out attack (obtuse angle); soft and dark sound, big flexibility

reed more bright, more flexible

reed more dark, more stable

Baroque oboe B-002

compared to B-001 more accentutated increase in all areas, especially in the middle. Heart stronger and wider
