   Building an oboe is a game of physics give-and-take, so there are some notes flatter or less flexible than others. But an oboe is not fixed like a piano, of course. While playing, the necessity of constant flexibility is unavoidable in order to achieve just tuning. It is more important to train the ear than have “perfect” equipment.
