    Common Questions

    Will this also work on English Horn?
    Most of the time, yes. Makes and models vary but often you can use the Key Leaves oboe key props on your English Horn as well.

    Absolutely, Yes! The material is soft and safe for any professional quality oboe finish and tested to be free from chemicals that tarnish silver.

    The Oboe Key Leaves are great! It fits on and gently holds the keys open. Oboe players have enough to worry about, especially now as the temps are constantly changing. It's really nice to know that the pads and keyholes are able to air dry with less of a chance of sticky keys. There is no surprise quite like the wrong pitch coming out during a solo because a pad is stuck! It's one less thing to worry about. :) Thanks Key Leaves!
