playing Oboe is extremely difficult. and I cannot even tell you in an encyclopedia how to play an oboe. oboe is on of the most difficult instruments to play. If you want to get started I suggest you find a teacher. keep in mind that an oboe is a very expensive instrument
You place the reed in your mouth after you have put all the pieces of the oboe together. Next you cover the right key and blow hard to get the note out. To raise the pitch you push the reed down on your bottom lip, and to lower the pitch you take out of your mouth just a bit.
An oboe reed is a pair of joined reeds that vibrate together to produce sound in certain wind instruments, such as bassoons and oboes. I play an Oboe, and at the begining it may sound like a duck to you but that is normal for the begiging. You just have to get used to the reed and after a while the Oboe will start to change in sound. Play it as if you are the Oboe, not the notes as it says but play it how you would want it to sound. Glad I could help :)
i am not an oboe player, however before playing, always wet your reed with sailva and for your embrochure, put your lips on the reed and blow
