When I read ionarts’ blog (thanks for the mention, btw) about the underwater opera all I could think was, “Well, that’s kind of a guarantee to ruin a fine oboe.”

Yes, it’s all about the oboe. Of course.

But anyway, no orchestra members were underwater. You may rest easy.

News article here. Slide show here, which includes dialogue and music … and no oboes to be heard.
