|---|---|
| Look: | Silver bands edge the bell at the bottom of the instrument, inlaid with pale green gems whose color accentuates the subtle grey-green grain of the wood. The oboe's double reed makes it one of the harder woodwinds for a musician to play, yet the laughing, clown-like music it produces makes it a valued component of any orchestra. |

Recall
The oboe is a tube crafted from wood that tapers slightly to a flared end. A series of six or seven holes are drilled upon the front, in-between the often decoratively banded segments, with a small set of two keys placed upon the lower holes to allow a wide range of tones. A slender double reed is placed in the top of the mouthpiece, giving the oboe its characteristic reedy tone.
