Instrument originally called an hautbois (4)

I believe the answer is:

oboe

(Other definitions for oboe that I've seen before include "music producer" , "Producer of notes" , "Woodwind instrument of treble pitch" , "Musical instrument" , "source of notes" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
