Unbranded (Cabart) Oboe D'Amore Mezzo Soprano Oboe in A BEAUTIFUL
WOW LOOK AT THIS!
Yes, stuck in the middle between the oboe and the English horn is the Oboe D'Amore, a mezzo-soprano English horn pitched in A, and this is a very nice, if somewhat mysterious example. There is no makers mark in the instrument but it is marked MADE IN FRANCE and I am assured by an expert in early 20th century oboes that this is undoubtedly the work of Cabart. This instrument is in excellent condition. It has just been completely gone over by my tech and is completely ready to play as is. The original bocal was missing, so we have added a Hinniker #3 bocal to it. Plays with a delicate, sweet sound that is characteristic of these terrific instruments.
