As a local professional on the instrument explained to me, Tabuteau's great contribution was a novel way to cut the double reed. The sound of the oboe with the Tabuteau reed was richer, louder and smoother than the typical thin, pinched, quacking sound of conventional reeds.
Tabuteau was French, and imported by Walter Damrosch in 1905 to join the NYSO. As noted, he became principal of the Philadelphia Orchestra in 1915 and stayed nearly 40 years.
