"This instrument is based on a two-keyed original by the 18th-century London maker Caleb Gedney now in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. The exterior appearance of this instrument is exceptionally elegant. Its tone is sweet. The range is two octaves plus a tone, F3 to G5. The tenor Oboe is played in the oboe band, where its function of filling in the harmonies is fulfilled in a most admirable way, and can also be used as a substitute for the oboe."
