Testimonials Hi there – I’m just emailing you to tell you how much I love your Oboe duet books, especially the vast range of Christmas music! I have all of them! I’m an oboe and double bass teacher (I know!) based in Dublin, and I am very much a Christmas enthusiast. I’m known among my students for wearing Christmas socks 365 days a year (they’ve checked!!) I’ve taken on some double bass students this year, and I’ll be buying your double bass Xmas duets to play with them. Given the brilliance of the oboe books, I’m really looking forward to it. Many thanks and keep up the good work! Eimear Hello – I love the arrangements We just played some today! Have a lovely Christmas and thanks for providing beginner bassoonists with some great music!!
