hautboy

Barthelemon was leader of the band; Fisher played the hautboy; and Mr. Hook was conductor and composer.

At fourteen, he was playing a hautboy in his father's band and practising on the violin at spare times.

In the second subscription-concert, we heard Herr Flad, who performed an hautboy-concerto in a very brilliant manner.

Of the orchestral players the drum was the noisiest; though the hautboy and the piccolo were every whit as emphatic.
