I was just wondering. My band director is ordering a new oboe, and I`m going to try that. I was just wondering if anyone could give me advice on whether or not this is a good idea.

This will be my 3rd year playing the trumpet. I`m guessing that I`ll end up playing both, but this is the first time I`ve ever really had an opportunity to try something else. I found out that tubas aren`t really meant for trumpet players, though, so I may end up just sticking with the brass. Thanx for the advice!
