A quick glance in my New Harvard Dictionary confirms it -- Obbligato is the opposite of ad libitum.

In the middle of a piece of music, let's say there are a few bars which the oboe can play or can leave out, at the conductor's discretion. So those bars are marked 'ad lib.' Immediately following are bars which the oboe must play. What indication cancels the ad lib?
I know that one way of making this clear is to print the ad lib section with reduced noteheads, but isn't there some term which I can use as well? Is the answer simply 'Play'?
Thanks, Aaron.
