The original pic assured me that it was an oboe.
And that was the best pink I could manage.
I was thinking of Peter Cook:
"Then we have been forced to listen to the pitiful whining of Mr Norma St.John Scott - a scrounger, parasite, pervert, a worm, a self-confessed player of the pink oboe; a man or woman who by his or her own admission chews pillows."

From the period
I'd say it was an hautboy..
I do in fact play the oboe, or used to.. my lips aren't strong enough to keep the fucker in tune for more than 15 minutes playing now, but it's just practice..
