Bill, I like that theory. The 1st part goes up to concert Bb" and the 2nd part down to Bb below middle C. They are obligato instruments in a beautiful...
Thanks, Steve. There is a footnote on the Viennese "oboe grande" in "The Eloquent Oboe" page 377-378, but only the portion from page 378 is readable online,...
