Strong match

Who this is for

  • Oboe students continuing after finishing Gekeler Book I
  • Private lesson студents needing a structured book between weekly sessions
  • Adult returners rebuilding reading on oboe in order

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • First-time oboe players — start with Book I
  • Players wanting repertoire or solo pieces rather than method work
  • Anyone on a different double reed instrument

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Book II

Sequel volume. It picks up from Book I's ending point rather than restarting fundamentals like fingerings and first notes.

Detail 02

Oboe-specific method

Written around oboe fingering and reed demands, not a general woodwind book adapted to several instruments.

Detail 03

Gekeler series

Part of a graded sequence, so the pacing assumes you continue in order rather than jumping between publishers.

Detail 04

Print book

Paper only. No audio tracks, app access, or play-along backing to practice against.

Detail 05

Under $10

Cheap enough to keep a second copy at a lesson studio or in the case permanently.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Book I is a separate purchase and is assumed knowledge here
  2. 02No accompaniment audio or backing tracks included
  3. 03Confirm your teacher uses the Gekeler sequence before buying the next volume

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Do I need Book I first?

Yes. This volume continues from where Book I stops, so its opening material assumes you already have those fundamentals in place.

02Does it come with a CD or audio?

No. It is a printed book with no included audio, download, or play-along tracks.

03Can I use this on English horn?

It is written for oboe. Fingerings and range are oboe-specific, so an English horn player would need to transpose and adapt.

04Is this good for self-teaching?

It works as practice material, but oboe reed and embouchure issues are hard to correct without a teacher watching you.
