Oboe d'amore
The (; Italian for "oboe of love"), less commonly , is a double reed woodwind musical instrument in the oboe family. Slightly larger than the oboe, it has a less assertive and a more tranquil and serene tone, and is considered the mezzo-soprano of the oboe family, between the oboe (soprano) and the cor anglais, or English horn (alto). It is a transposing instrument, sounding a minor third lower than it is notated, i.e. in A. The bell is pear-shaped and the instrument uses a bocal, similar to the larger cor anglais, whose bocal is larger.

Its popularity waning in the late eighteenth century, the fell into disuse for about 100 years until composers such as Richard Strauss (''Symphonia Domestica'', where the instrument represents the child), Claude Debussy ("Gigues", where the oboe d'amore has a long solo passage), Maurice Ravel, Frederick Delius, and others began using it once again in the early years of the twentieth century. It can be heard in Toru Takemitsu's " (1984), but its most famous modern usage is, perhaps, in Ravel's ''Boléro'' (1928), where the follows the E-flat clarinet to recommence the main theme for the second time. Gustav Mahler employed the instrument once, in "ドイツ語:Um Mitternacht" (1901), one of his five ''Rückert-Lieder''. American composer William Perry uses the in his film scores and most recently in the third movement of his ''Jamestown Concerto'' for cello and orchestra (2007). In his orchestration of Mussorgsky's ''Pictures at an Exhibition'', Vladimir Ashkenazy uses the to highlight the plaintive solo of the "" movement.
