Contrabass ﴾or Viola﴿ oboe is a well‐known “English shepherd’s horn”, widespread in foggy Albion, has 16 holes. The piccolo oboe is a Musette with a conical bell and 18 holes. Oboe d’amur is an instrument with a small curved nose and 13 holes. The Hunting Oboe is a crudely crafted 8‐hole instrument that produces short, low sounds like the sound of a war horn. Hekelfon is a bass‐baritone oboe, it sounds one octave below the standard oboe. The sound is melodious, expressive, it belongs to the nose tone. Occasionally is it used in orchestras.
