What Made Hailey's Oboe 'Pop' When She First Played With the Orchestra?


I am new to the party and have just started Season 1. In the second episode, Hailey's oboe made a popping sound causing her to drop her oboe the first time she played with the orchestra. What caused this? She mentioned her hands were sweaty and she was clearly nervous. Did her reed crack or was there an issue with condensation in her instrument?

She just dropped the oboe because of sweaty hands. The pop you heard was it hitting the floor.
