This illustration shows a standard modern oboe, crafted typically from grenadilla wood or synthetic materials, featuring a conical bore and a double reed that produces its signature penetrating, expressive tone. The instrument includes silver-plated keys and tone holes arranged for precise fingering across three octaves. Often used in orchestras, wind bands, and solo repertoire, the oboe also serves as the tuning reference (A=440 Hz) for many ensembles.
