Performed by some of the most world renown Oboists and orchestras. The oboe first appeared in the mid-17th century, when it was called a hautbois. The oboe is a reed instrument that has a significant effect on the sound. Variations in cane and other construction materials, the age of the reed, and differences in scrape and length all affect the pitch.
