The oboe d'amore was invented in the eighteenth century and was first used by Christoph Graupner in his cantata Wie wunderbar ist Gottes Güt (1717). Johann Sebastian Bach wrote many pieces—a concerto, many of his cantatas, and the Et in Spiritum sanctum movement of his Mass in B minor—for the instrument.
Oboes are made in student, semi-professional and professional grades, and the oboe d'amore, cor anglais, and oboe musette in E♭ are also produced.

It has generally been accepted that it is a reworking of a lost instrumental concerto, since Donald Francis Tovey first made the suggestion in 1935, when he proposed the oboe d'amore as the melody instrument.
That it was an oboe d'amore was proposed in 1936 by Donald Tovey, [39] in 1957 by Ulrich Siegele, [35] in 1975 by Wilfried Fischer, [40] and in 2008 by Pieter Dirksen. [36] Alternatively, Wilhelm Mohr argued in 1972 that the original was a concerto for viola d'amore. [ 41 ]
A transposing instrument; it is pitched in F, a perfect fifth lower than the oboe. The oboe d'amore, the alto (or mezzo-soprano) member of the family, is pitched in A, a minor third lower than the oboe. J.S. Bach made extensive use of both the oboe d'amore as well as the taille and oboe da caccia, Baroque antecedents of the cor anglais.
