*The '''[[Cor Anglais]]''' (or '''English horn''') in F is the tenor of the family, tuned a fifth below the oboe.  It is the expessively emotional one, not used frequently enough to have its own player, so is entrusted to the second or third oboe in an orchestra.

*The '''[[Bassoon]]''' plays the baritone parts. It is an honorary member of the family as there is no true oboe to play its role. Its relationship in sound is much as the cello’s is to the violin, but is heard far less frequently.

*The '''[[Bassoon|Contra-Bassoon]]''', tuned an octave below the bassoon is the true bass of the family, such as the stringed double bass is to the violin clan..

Other members of the family abound but are not normally included in the modern symphony orchestra. They include the “'''Heckelphone'''" (named after its inventor) with a pitch between the cor anglais and the bassoon but having a different type of sound; the “'''Oboe da caccia'''” (literally, “''oboe of the chase''”) a comparatively strident and now defunct instrument; the “'''E flat Oboe'''” pitched the same as the clarinet and now rare; and the “'''Tenoroon'''”, a sort of mini-bassoon . The '''[[Oboe d'amore]]''', whilst not a member of modern orchestras, is a stalwart of the “authentic instrument” orchestras – [[J. S. Bach]] made extensive use of this instrument, so much so that many of his [[cantata]]s are immediately recognisable by the sound of this wonderful instrument.
