The Oboe is a better instrument to play. I play it and it was very fun to learn. The Oboe isn't as common as the violin so many people ask me to demonstrate it because they have never heard it before. Plus if you are looking for a job as an oboe player it is easy to get the job because there isn't many oboe players.
So the OBOE is better than the VIOLIN.

∙ 13y agoAn Oboe is very hard to learn and play, I wouldn't recommend it until you play another woodwind first(Preferably reed).

What is the hardest guitar style to learn?
Oboe or violin. Oboe is definitely the hardest wind instrument and violin is definitely the hardest string instrument. I had a violin teacher from Russia and she said "In America the hardest instrument to play is the oboe. But in Russia the violin is the hardest instrument to play." I lean towards violin not just because I play it but if you think about it all you have to do with the oboe is learn the fingerings and the breath....(which does take a long time to get right). In violin you have to learn a lot of different fingerings and and they do not have keys you have to learn how to put your fingers on in the correct place. Violin also just has a lot of music written for it. (more than oboe). But it is a still a matter of opinion. I've played the Oboe for a year, and now the bassoon-both double reed instruments. I actually think bassoon is much harder, although they're both double reeds, bassoon is a much bigger instrument, and requries a lot of patience, and a lot of musical ability. I don't know about the violin though!

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.
Which is better flute or oboe?
The Oboe is a much better instrument then the Flute. It gives a much better sound and tone quality and does not need to tune as it usually stays in pitch. This instrument may be more expensive, but overall is better and sounds better.

What is the hardest instrument to learn?
All instruments are hard to learn at the start and all you do is practice to get better. But i would say that the hardest instrument to learn would be the oboe or bassoon (but this is at the start). Some people say the violin is the hardest instrument to learn but I disagree as the violin is relatively easy to play at the start compared to the bassoon or oboe however the violin gets very hard very fast and that makes it harder to play as you are always learning something new were as bassoon and oboe once you have mastered the fingerings its not to bad. But grand daddy of them all is the harp. to learn how to play this could take twice as long as any other instrument due to the numerous strings and positions. But wind instruments are generally harder to learn that string instruments as it will take longer for you to get your first sound out of it than a string instrument. But as I said at the start all you do is practice and the instrument will be easy to you. Well, I'd say that one of the hardest things that you need for almost every instrument is to be able to learn music. Personally, i think the clarinet is QUITE hard- wind instruments are the hardest. The piano is QUITE easy. But, it doesn't exactly matter which is hardest, learning any instrument is worthwhile. well i believe the flute is the hardest because its hard to figure out how to blow through it, even make a noise well i guess the trombones also a little confusing and has lots of buttons but flutes are way out there. The Bagpipes are the most difficult, also you cannot look at music while you play
