The Lor\u00e9e Company<\/h5>\n

The famous French oboe manufacturing company Lor\u00e9e was founded in 1881 by Fran\u00e7ois Lor\u00e9e, ex-foreman of Tri\u00e9bert Oboe Company. Lucien, the son of Fran\u00e7ois – to whom he passed on his knowledge and expertise -, took over the firm upon Fran\u00e7ois’ death in 1902.<\/p>\n

Mentored by the renowned Paris Conservatoire oboe teacher Georges Gillet, Lucien Lor\u00e9e modernized the oboe and introduced several new inventions. The famous “Conservatoire Plateau System” was one of these, and from 1906 onwards it was rapidly adopted by soloists around the world. Instrument manufacturer Raymond Dubois acquired the firm in 1925, but Lucien Lor\u00e9e still took an active part in production.<\/p>\n

Robert de Gourdon, Mr. Dubois\u2019 son-in-law, joined the firm in 1935 and worked in collaboration with Lucien Lor\u00e9e. In 1967, Robert de Gourdon began to share his knowledge and expertise with his son, Alain, who is now President of the firm.
\nEn 1974, Alain de Gourdon took over Cabart, which became the trademark for the student oboe line, prized for its perfect tuning and high quality. Upon the request of several teachers desiring to enable younger children to learn oboe, the firm released the “Cabart Petites Mains” oboe. This model is lighter and has a simplified key system for children with a shorter reach, making it ideal for younger beginners.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the Company\u2019s brilliant innovations and high standards of instrument manufacturing, a new masterpiece – “Le Royal” – was created and introduced in 1989. Combining reliability with aesthetic and tonal beauty, “Le Royal” remains the gold standard of oboes throughout the world.<\/p>\n

In 2006, to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the F.Lor\u00e9e firm and the 100-year anniversary of the “Conservatoire Plateau System”, a “limited series” of Royal oboes was introduced. In 2013 a new model – the \u201cEtoile\u201d – was added to the prestigious lineup of the Lor\u00e9e instruments.<\/p>\n
