The 27 etudes for hautboy solo are intended mainly for those musicians who are anxious to form the educational conception of their individual technical style. The performing and pedagogical practice revealed the traditional etudes to have become too easy for the new generation of oboists. Such simple examples as the studies by J. Luft, F. Ferling can't serve as the base for the pieces by R. Strauss, L. Knipper, A. Eshpai, A. Posculi. The publication is intended for high school students, so as for the ones who are eager to strengthen their skill, memory and inclinations, to master fingering in the upper register.
