The Oboe was not created so much as evolved from the Renaissance Shawm. It happened in France, probably in the first quarter of the 17th century, and probably by either the Hotteterre or Philidor family of wind-instrument makers. The oboe they created is hardly recognized next to today's keywork-heavy ebony oboe: it had open holes, a few keys, and was made of lighter woods, boxwood and cocobolo being favorites. The major improvements over the powerful shawms included being made in three pieces (which allowed more precision than turning and boring one or two very long parts) and a bore-size and shape that lent itself to a softer, more mannered sound.
