  1. hautbois

    Hautbois, also known as oboe, is a type of woodwind musical instrument. It is made by boring out a long wooden tube and placing keys and holes in it. The sound is produced by placing a double reed, made from two pieces of cane, in the mouth and blowing. The term "hautbois" comes from the French, meaning "high wood". Oboes are often heard in orchestras, chamber music, film music, in some genres of folk music, and as a solo instrument.
