Reeds: Single vs. Double | Warm Technical

Ever wondered the difference between single reed and double reeds? Here is an insight from oboist, Leo Duarte and clarinettist, Katherine 'Waffy' Spencer. Both played in our period orchestra,The Old Street Band and having played in the production of Cosi fan tutte, they used this overture to aid them! FUN FACT: Leo has a collection of nearly 30 oboes spanning from the 18th to the 21st centuries, and each one needs its own bespoke type of reed. Waffy has a collection of nearly 30 clarinets from 18th to 21st century and bar one, all the reeds come out of a factory fresh sachet! So Waffy has a lot more time in lockdown to play a range of clarinets to her pony for her continuing historical performance course! Presented by Leo & Waffy Edited by Joe Kirk *** For 40 years, English Touring Opera (ETO) has toured outstanding live productions, with a commitment to rediscovering and reimagining work, and impactful education and community projects to more towns and cities than any other UK opera company. At the heart of our ethos is making exceptional artistic experiences available and accessible to everyone. We reach over 50,000 people per year with five mainstage productions, two specially commissioned operas for children and young people with special educational needs, a series of creative workshops for people with dementia and their carers, and more than 70 workshops for people of all abilities and ages. We produce ambitious programmes of high-quality, innovative opera that introduce, educate and inspire audiences with distinctive new repertoire. In doing so we advance public awareness, engagement and enjoyment of this powerful art form. Every tour starts with a residency at Hackney Empire in London, then travels across the UK from Truro in Cornwall and Perth in Scotland. The quality of our work has been formally recognised with the 2014 Olivier Award for ‘Outstanding Achievement in Opera’ and the ‘Best New Opera Production’ from the 2017 WhatsOnStage Opera Poll. ‘Hats off to ETO. It's a jewel in the country's operatic crown for three reasons: the uncompromising enterprise of its programming, the high calibre of performing and creative talent it engages, and the sheer dogged extent of its nationwide travels. As a truly national opera company, ETO more than lives up to its billing.’ – WhatsOnStage (Spring 2016) A key aspect of ETO’s mission is a dedication to supporting young artists in the early stages of their careers and singers from BAME backgrounds. ETO offers emerging artists wide ranging performance opportunities and provides additional training and guidance. Many distinguished singers had their earliest experiences of professional performance with ETO, including Sarah Connolly, Amanda Echalaz and James Rutherford. Our mainstage work is completed by a programme of imaginative education and community projects. ETO seeks to inspire children and adults of all backgrounds, dispelling the myth that opera is reserved for the privileged. Our education work is wide ranging and includes commissioning operas for schools and children with profound learning disabilities, delivering projects for people with dementia and their carers, and creating large scale operas to engage whole communities. Each year, our award winning education programme reaches over 15,000 children and adults nationwide, offering the chance to create, participate in and see bespoke performances.
