 O·boe n.  Mus. One of the higher wind instruments in the modern orchestra, yet of great antiquity, having a penetrating pastoral quality of tone, somewhat like the clarinet in form, but more slender, and sounded by means of a double reed; a hautboy.
 Oboe d'amore , and Oboe di caccia , are names of obsolete modifications of the oboe, often found in the scores of Bach and Handel.
