Baroque Oboe

The Baroque oboe is a double reed woodwind instrument that appeared in the mid-17th century. The instrument was recorded in the relatively dry and controlled environment of our second studio, the Silent Stage, and offers all typical articulations.

The Baroque oboe evolved out of the chalumeau (shawm) and is also called “hautbois” – haut meaning “high”, “loud” and bois meaning “wood” in French – because it covers the soprano range from c1 to d3. As opposed to the modern oboe, the Baroque oboe has only three keys. In order to produce higher pitches, the player has to “overblow”, meaning to increase the force of air to reach the next harmonic.
