You play the oboe should you now play trumpet violin or something else?

Violin would be an easier change from oboe, because trumpets transpose (the note they see and play isn't the note that comes out). If you are used to reading a non-transposing instrument in treble clef, you will likely feel more comfortable moving to another non-transposing instrument in treble clef.

Is the violin a transposition instrument?

The violin is a non-transposing instrument, which means when asked to play, for example, a "C", the violin plays its "C" and the pitch is the same as a "C" on the piano. Other non-transposing instruments include the cello, double bass, piccolo, flute, oboe, bassoon, trombone, tuba, vibraphone, and marimba.


What is a transposing instrument and how does it differ from a non-transposing instrument?

A transposing instrument is a musical instrument that sounds at a different pitch than the written music. This means that the notes written on the sheet music do not match the actual sounds produced by the instrument. In contrast, a non-transposing instrument plays the notes as written on the sheet music, with no pitch adjustment.

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.
