Usually the musician who plays oboe uses a strap around his neck, which helps to hold the instrument, as does the bassoon and some saxophones.
The double vane is similar to that of the oboe but is inserted into a mouthpiece, unlike the oboe in which it is placed inside the instrument.
The technique of playing is the same as that of the oboe and the music is written as if it were played in C, making it easier for it to be played by those who know the oboe. In fact, the formation of the musicians is made in the oboe before moving to the English corne.
