to play a low c concert, you put your (left hand) three fingers on top down.(pointer finger, middle finger, and ring finger)
to play a middle c concert, you put your pointer finger (left hand) and your pointer finger (right hand) down.
to play a high c concert, you do the same as a middle c, but you add the side key, right next to your pointer finger down with the side of your pointer. while keeping the hole covered and your finger down.
hope this helps!

Is the viola in the same clef as the oboe?
they are both Bb instruments, but they range of notes isnt. [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] Sorry, but that (original) answer above is half-false. The oboe most definitely is NOT a Bb (transposing) instrument. The Oboe is a CONCERT-PITCH instrument. The Clarinet may be pitched in a variety of keys; Bb today is the most prevalent, but the A Clarinet is (or should be) in the collection of every professional orchestral clarinetist. The Oboe's range extends down to the Bb (one whole step) below Middle C; the Bb Clarinet's lowest written note is the "E" below Middle C; because it is a Bb transposing instrument, that "E" actually sounds one whole step lower - "D". The oboe's larger, deeper cousin - the English horn - is a transposing instrument: in F. Its written note will sound a perfect fifth lower than written.

Is the oboe d'amore higher or lower in pitch than the orchestral oboe?
The oboe d'amore is in A; the oboe is in C. The oboe d'amore is a minor third lower in pitch than the oboe, however typically music for the oboe d'amore is written so that oboe fingerings may be used (in other words, the note A is printed as a C, so that the player uses the oboe fingering for C but the note sounds a minor third lower).
