Answer : OBOE
oboe, hautboy, hautbois – n
a slender double-reed instrument; a woodwind with a conical bore and a double-reed mouthpiece
Oboes, whose name comes from the French for “high-pitched wood,” are excellent for solo performances with many notes in high ranges. The oboe is extremely difficult to play.
The oboe and its larger relative, the cor anglais both produce a beautiful, sweet, haunting sound. When used as solo instruments the sound is sometimes described as a ‘pastoral’ sound. This is because they are descended from the type of reed instruments that have been used in folk music and by shepherds the world over for thousands of years. Modern oboes blend superbly with all instruments of the orchestra and can also be surprisingly agile.
The Oboe and the Cor Anglais (or English Horn) are wooden conical bore, double reed instruments. Other types of oboe include the Oboe d’Amore and the Hecklephone. Oboes have been used in orchestras for about 400 years and are among the most established instruments of the orchestra.
