I had the pleasure of playing Tombeau for the first time a couple weeks ago. I played second oboe/English horn and it was a really fun part, though there are some really quick switches.

Due to some past wrist problems, I play both oboe and English horn with a neckstrap now, and fast switches always offer a sort of conundrum for me:

Is it better to wear 2 different neckstraps and set heights for each instruments, or wear one and adjust accordingly? I’ve tried both, but for Tombeau opted for the 2-strap option and sometimes just went without the oboe one for faster trade-offs.
