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 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.


What is the difference between a flute and a oboe?

The flute is longer than a oboe and an oboe has a double reed and a flute does not have a reed. The flute has a cylindrical bore while the oboe has a conical bore. The fingerings are definitely comparable, but not the same. The oboe has a range from Bb below the treble clef to Ab twice above the treble clef, while the flute has a huge range from C below the treble clef to D twice above the treble clef.

How do you transpose viola to oboe?

They are both in C, there is no transposing involved. The issue is Viola is written in a different clef than oboe, so you would need to learn to read that clef.
