musette (oboe)

A musical instrument in the woodwind family, also known as a piccolo oboe (and possibly also a nickname for the suona, a type of Chinese shawm).

The piccolo oboe or oboe musette is the smallest and highest pitched member of the oboe family. Pitched in E-flat or F above the regular oboe (which is a C instrument), the piccolo oboe is a sopranino version of the oboe, comparable to the E flat clarinet.

The name musette is also applied to a small French bagpipe (musette de cour).
