Overview

Workshop with Ricardo Domínguez Cortez

Through vocal-inspired exercises and imagery, participants will explore the use of breath support, airflow, and body awareness to produce a more natural and singing tone.

By thinking like a singer, oboists can unlock greater flexibility, warmth, and projection in their playing. Topics will include resonance, legato playing, vibrato, and the connection between phrasing and breath. Designed for intermediate to advanced players, the session includes live demonstrations, guided exercises, and opportunities for participants to perform and receive feedback.
