The lowest note on the Oboe is a B flat below middle C.
However, many student oboes lack the necessary key to play this note. In these beginner oboes, the lowest note is a B below middle C. It is still possible to play a B flat on these beginner oboes by plugging the low B flat hole with your knee or leg.
