An Oboe So Magnificent, It’s Worthy of a Crown
Has your beginner oboe been holding you back? If so, then it’s time to take the next step of your musical journey with the Victory Musical Instruments Crown Series intermediate oboe. With a full conservatory key system, this horn provides alternate fingering options and advanced playability that many other oboes can’t provide, such as D–C and G#–A trill keys, a left-hand F lever, a full ring D key, and more. It also boasts a robust grenadilla wood body for unparalleled tone quality and projection. Plus, this regal horn even comes with a luxury case to store it in. Altogether, the Victory Crown Series intermediate oboe is a spectacular package for the evolving tween musician, the aspiring music major, and the hobbyist alike.
Access your entire range with a full conservatory key system
Despite its status as an intermediate-level instrument, the Crown Series oboe boasts a full conservatory system with semi-automatic style keys for smooth, lyrical sound up and down the horn. It also boasts a vented low Bb and full ring system D key, giving you even more control over those finicky notes. Moreover, D–C and left-hand G#–A trills offer convenient, alternative fingerings that help reduce frustration and aid in developing proper playing technique.
Professional-grade grenadilla wood construction
Unlike many student and intermediate-level oboes, which are frequently made with rugged resin bodies to withstand heavy use, the Crown Series oboe is made from real grenadilla wood. It's also populated with silver-plated keys in a full conservatory key system, with a thick key plating for added expressiveness. The keys are fitted with nine cork and 14 felt pads to provide you with a dynamic feel, a rich tonality, and buzz-free playing, ensuring optimum intonation and response in every register.
