Soprano Saxophone is more of a solo instrument and if you wish to learn it, play tenor first. With the Saxophone you can play more of a jazz style. However, the first year of an Oboe is horrible until you start becoming better. The oboeis more of a concert band and symphony instrument. It depends if you can see yourself playing jazz or concert later in your life.
Soprano: flute, piccolo, oboe, clarinet, soprano saxophone. Alto: english horn, alto saxophone. Tenor: tenor saxophone, alto clarinet (despite its name, it is usually used as a tenor instrument). Bass: bassoon, contrabassoon, bass/contrabass clarinets, baritone saxophones. Of course, since woodwind instruments typically have a greater range than human voices, there is considerable overlap between parts. Bassoons frequently play the tenor part, and clarinets often play the alto part.
there are alot of band instruments that read music written in a treble clef such as: Trumpet Saxaphone Clarinet Flute Bass Clarinet Tuba Trombone oboe ufonium ... e.t.c ....
Yes, he does. He played alto and tenor as well as soprano on some of his earlier recordings, and still occasionally uses them (such as on his cover of "Pick up the Pieces" with David Sanborn).

Size of the instrument. They play the same notes and all the chords are the same. The larger size makes it a bit louder. The Tenor (17 inches) is slightly bigger, the fret board being about 3-4 inches longer than the soprano (13 inches). The Concert size (15 inches) is in between the two of them.

Yes, I play Contra bassoon soprano and tenor sax throughout the year. So yeah
Here is a list: * Flute * Oboe * Clarinet * Trumpet * Bassoon * English Horn * Piccolo * French Horn * Violin * Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Baritone Saxophones * Tuned percussion instruments (xylophone, vibraphone, bells, ect.) that's all i can think of right now. I personally play oboe, clarinet, and tuned percussion instruments. Oboe is very difficult and fun, but again extremely difficult. Clarinet is easy to pick up. Tuned percussion is extremely easy to learn and play well.
There are several: Flute, piccolo- my instruments Clarinet Bass Clarinet Basson- technically a double reed in the WW family Oboe- technically a double reed in the WW family Alto Saxophone Tenor Sax Baritone Sax Soprano Sax There may be more but those are the most common

It depends on which one that interests you the most.
The different kinds of saxophones available are soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone. Each saxophone has a unique size and range of notes it can play.

The term "choir" generally refers to a group of voices, although it is also used by some musicians to refer to a subset of a larger group where the characteristic of the voices are fairly uniform and resemble the makeup of a vocal choir. If the choir you are asking about is a vocal choir, an oboe is not a normal part of it, because the oboe is not a human voice. An oboe or two might be added as non-vocal color or even to support the soprano voices (in which case it would be choir and... rather than just choir, and the oboe would be part of whatever replaces the elipses!) In the "woodwind choir" of orchestra or band, the oboe is the soprano of the double-reed subsection. The other common members of the woodwind section are the english horn and bassoon. If a composer is seeking to make a choir-like sound, they might use two oboes for the soprano and alto parts, the english horn as tenor and the bassoon as bass. To this section is sometimes added the less common contrabassoon (an octave lower than the bassoon) and the Baritone oboe, which is lower in pitch than the english horn and would serve like a vocal baritone. The oboe is generally used for melodic solos or to provide the top two voices in harmony. In a woodwind quintet or mixed woodwind choir, it is more often used as an alto to the flute's soprano, or for solo work where it's brighter tone can run an emotional gamut from sprightly to sombre.
