The oboe is a double reed woodwind instrument often made of wood or synthetic materials. What we now know as the modern oboe first came to be in the mid-17th Century and was then known as a hautboi. It was also the main melody instrument in many early military bands until the development of the clarinet. The oboe typically plays in the treble or soprano range.
Although it is commonly found in modern orchestras and symphonies, and occasionally in jazz and pop music, finding a good oboe teacher can be tough.
