No, the Flute is much higher than the Saxophone and gets up to higher octaves. The most equivalent instrument to it's own kind would probably be the Oboe. Piccolo is the highest instrument, which is part of the flute family.

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).


What instrument is similar to both the clarinet and oboe?

An oboe, is a lot harder to make a good sound, and the clarinet is a little bit easier. an oboe has a double reed, and a clarinet has a regular reed. You can listen to them both on Youtube to compare the sound. This choice really has to be yours. Edit: Oboists are usually harder to find, and thus are more in demand, especially in college music programs. You could have a fine shot at a music scholarship as an oboist.


What is the difference between a bassoon and a bass clarinet?

There is a HUGE difference between an oboe and a bassoon. Bassoons are low woodwinds that are very large and have a reed that sticks out of the middle of the instrument. It sounds kind of muffled and normally plays a similar part in a song as the bass instruments (tuba, trombone, etc.) An oboe is similar in physical attributes to an English horn. An oboe has 2 reeds and plays a similar part in songs that a flute does, just a bit lower-pitched.


What is different about the cor anglais's shape compared to the oboe?
