Is this to say than an oboe or clarinet must have an out of tune
scale in order to have a nice tone?

We have to tune every note we play slower than some arbitrary speed,
say, eighth notes at quarter = 120. The closer to a tempered scale
the instrument has, the easier it is to do this.

Now to get back to piano practice.
