Altitude certainly matters. The density of molecules in a given volume is lower at higher altitude. Because an oboe is an aerophone, the principal vibrator is the column of air in the instrument. Going to a higher altitude means you are changing the mass of the vibrator. It's almost as if your piano string got lighter as you went to higher altitudes....
