The reason for the question is that I know someone who is a classically trained oboe player but now mainly interested in traditional music - she's thinking of just dumping the oboe, so I wanted to find something that would motivate her to give it a chance. But it would need to be substantial, a whole CD or a sizable YouTube channel.

What I can find so far that goes beyond the classical repertoire and comes in sizable chunks: Paul McCandless (oboe player with Eberhard Weber, ECM-school minimalist jazz) and various Hungarian players of the tarogato, doing a whole range of things with it (the tarogato is in between an oboe and a sax so somewhat relevant).

A sort of "Captain Fraser meets ECM" project would be neat but I think she needs to see some more precedents first.
