10 famous oboe composers
The oboe is a high medium pitch, I believe. It ranges from a B flat below the staff to a G an octave higher than the G on the top space of the staff. If you are a musician, you know that it is a ledger line G above the staff.
The oboe is a reed instrument, but instead of having one bit of cane, it has two, one on top of the other.

Yes, it's called the reed. Unlike the clarinet, you don't need an extra mouthpiece, this is combined.

I Dunno :L Edit: The highest note possible is an A above high C; or 4 ledger lines above the staff. In most of the common repetoire, however, oboes rarely play anything above the D above the staff.
The oboe's mouthpiece is the reed at the top that you take out and put in before playing. This reed makes it a double-reed instrument because of the two pieces of bamboo that form the majority of the reed.
The oboe and bassoon are double reeded instruments wich means one reed at the top and one on the bottom. They are a lot harder to use than one reeded instruments.
