Richard Kershaw was born in Leeds in 1946 and educated in Norwich and at Balliol College, Oxford, where he read Music.

He was a music teacher at Aberdeen University and, from 1975, at Sherborne School in Dorset. During his time at Sherborne, he achieved a D. Phil. from Oxford University and has continued to teach part-time at the school following his retirement in 1999.

Richard Kershaw plays the piano and the ‘cello. Retirement has allowed him to spend more time composing, as well as bird-watching and cultivating his extensive rock garden.

Have Oboe, Will Travel builds on the success of World Jazz Tour, a set of songs from different countries written for the piano in jazzy style by Richard Kershaw. But unlike before, the musical themes are Richard’s own, inspired by characteristic dance rhythms from five different countries.

There are no extreme high or low notes, but they do require a good feel for syncopation. All five dances are delightful and the collection provides enjoyable and distinctive music for teaching use. Five dances, in various national styles, for oboe and piano.

Set on the ABRSM Oboe syllabus from 2022 Grade 5 List C: Red Hot Polka and the Trinity Oboe syllabus from 2022 Grade 5 Group A: Ragamuffin Rag or Tango for Two
