playing humorous phrases.
Features a characteristically broad and deep—even noble—sound, and is frequently used as
a solo instrument.

D An instrument of the woodwind double reed family, this has a high, reedy, sometimes nasal
tone—yet it is also rich and warm, and can handle a wide range of expression and emotion.
Also known as "cor anglais," this is larger than the oboe, and its timbre is well-suited to
performance of expressive, melancholic solos in slow orchestral pieces.
This belongs to the double reed family and is used in the lower range. It is known for its
humorous, expressive character as well as its wide range and agility, and can also be used

sticks."
Among the woodwind instruments, this is capable of the loudest sound, and plays a highly
prominent role. Its wide expressional power makes it ideal for both classical music and jazz.
