Find out how the vibrations are made in clarinets and oboes?

In clarinets and oboes, vibrations are produced by a single reed (in clarinets) or a double reed (in oboes) that vibrates when air is blown through it. In clarinets, the player’s breath causes the single reed to oscillate against the mouthpiece, creating sound waves in the air column inside the instrument. In oboes, the two reeds are placed together, and the player's air pressure causes them to vibrate against each other, generating sound. Both instruments then shape their unique timbres through the length and construction of their bodies, which amplify and modify the vibrations.
