Thank you for visiting Oboe Chicago.  My name is Shawna Lake,  president and owner.  I have been helping people for over 20 years find the right instrument.

I personally select and provide a large selection of Loree, Howarth, Buffet and Covey oboes.  Through my research, I have found each manufacturer to be a product that will fit your different concepts of reed vibration, and tonal production.  Whether an AK Loree, a Covey Classic, a Greenline Buffet, or an S20C Howarth matches the vibrations from your reed-style, you will find that special sound you are looking for.  While all play beautifully; there is one that is perfect for you.

Whether you play in the Chicago Symphony, your community orchestra, or high school band, you share the same goal to own an oboe to suit your personal needs.  Through my research and experience as a performer, these four brands of oboes were found to be superior in the market.   My oboe selection will let you, your reed, and your oboe all perform as one!

I pride myself in making sure that you love the oboe you choose.  I give professional players, college professors, and students all an equal amount of attention in finding the perfect oboe.

I offer new and used instruments on a two-week trial either in your own home, or in my acoustically-sound studio.

Please contact me for current inventory and for personal, undivided attention to your needs.
