Best Answer

In an orchestra an Oboe is part of the woodwind section. The technique is no different than at any other time you play the oboe.

Orchestras divide instruments produced by blowing sound through a tube into brass and woodwinds. Brass instruments: trumpets, trombones, etc., at one time were all made of brass. Woodwinds were made of wood, or used a reed, or blew across a hole. Thus, a silver Flute is a woodwind. Ravel put a sax in an orchestra in the woodwinds.
