because the corks and the reeds are made out of wood. On the right, there is a wooden oboe from the 17th century which is made entirely out of wood except the keys which are made out of metal. ======

Oboes and clarinets have completely different sounds and oboes are a lot louder and more powerful. In my opinion (not just because I play the oboe) oboes sound way better than clarinets. ======

= ** History of oboes ** =

Oboes come from France and were very unknown when they were invented, and even now, they are a very rare instrument. Now many more people play them, but there are still very rare and you don't come across that many people who play them (except me). Oboes can be very expensive, and the cheapest you can buy in sweden is about 5000:- :D but they are usually a lot more. Most people, when they begin, they hire an oboe. This is relativly cheap, (but the oboes aren't really that good). Yep, I started playing the oboe about 2 years ago, but i have been playing the violin for 5 and piano for somewhat years which I do not know. I also play the guitar. So, thank you for reading my short page about oboes, now you may watch this oboe concerto which is down below.  media type="youtube" key="DhygJyCvYeA?fs=1" height="487" width="615" align="center"
