Also, many orchestras have only 2 oboe players. I don't think I've ever seen a pop/rock band with an oboe in it.

The lack of french horn players in pop/rock bands was part of why I quit playing. The neighbors complaining about my practicing didn't help. Yamaha's Silent Brass system worked pretty well while I still had one.
