This collection of etudes duets and exercises was written compiled and edited by Russian oboist and pedagogue Yuri Maizels to provide the most efficient means possible for young players to learn the basics of oboe playing. The composers Hinke (a German composer who taught and worked in St. Petersburg during the reign of the Tsars) Wiedemann Garnier and Debondue are among the finest of writers and pedagogues featured in this series. These studies begin very simply and gradually increase in difficulty becoming more challenging melodically and rhythmically with increasing comprehension of the instrument. Short phrases enable the student to learn to control both breathingand intonation. This collection of studies in three volumes can help a high school student or young professional to master technique breathing and intonation while developing the endurance that is vitally important for oboe players. Yuri Maizels was born in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) in the former Soviet Union. After the conclusion of the Second World War he was accepted at age 13 into the Naval Boarding Musical School in Leningrad (the school which had been organized in 1873 by Rimsky-Korsakov) to study the oboe. In 1964 he graduated from the College of Music with multiple degrees in oboe performance oboe teaching and conducting. During his career Yuri Maizels played in major orchestras working with such well-known conductors such as Yuri Temirkanov Mariss Jansons Yuri Simionov Valery Gergiev and others.

Five North-Eastern Scenes for oboe and piano was commissioned by the Kunstförderverein Kreis Düren e. V. for the 2016 Spannungen chamber music festival in Heimbach Germany. 'The piece is in five shortmovements. The first third and fifth explore space and melancholy while the 2nd and 4th are fleeting and at times more violent. This is the third work in which I have used the paintings of the Scottish artistJoan Eardley as a starting point. Her vast emotive snow scenes painted outside in the brief periods of calm between snow storms capture the striking yet bleak beauty of North East Scotland an area where I grew up but have notvisited for many years.' - Helen Grime.
