 | | The shawms tone could be described as 'loud' or 'shrill' and because of the piercing quality and sheer volume of its tone, the shawm was primarily played outdoors. |  | | One of the problems with medieval music was that an instrument was often limited in its tonal range to a single octave. |  | | A dulcian could be played in church to provide the bass tone for motets and masses; it could be played in rooms and chambers at court and other secular areas, providing intimate music for those subdued settings. |

 | | In part, the oboe was developed during the late 17th century to provide a quieter alternative to the shawm which would be more suitable for indoor concert music. |  | | The ancestor of the Western oboe was another reed instrument called the "shalmey" or "shawm" which had finger-holes but no keys. |  | | During the 18th century, many works were composed for solo oboe, including pieces by such renowned composers as J.S. Bach and G.P. Telemann. |

| | THE HISTORY OF THE OBOE. |
 | | In the classical era,a pair of oboes were essential for every symphony orchestra, and later composers somtimes required more. |  | | It was invented in the 17th century by the French musicians Jean Hotteterre and Michel Danican Philidor, who modified the louder shawm (the prevailing double-reed instrument) for indoor use. |  | | The oboe is non-transposing and has a natural scale of D. Although still higher notes are obtainable, generally accepted range is from B flat below middle C to an octave above G on top of the trebel clef. |
