Sections
A woodwind instrument is a wind
instrument in which sound is produced by blowing through a mouthpiece against
an edge or by a vibrating reed, and in which the pitch is varied by opening
or closing holes in the body of the instrument. As the name implies, such
instruments were originally made of wood, but some modern woodwinds, such
as the saxophone,
are made of other materials.
A brass instrument is a musical
instrument whose tone is produced by vibration of the lips as the
player blows into a tubular resonator (mouthpiece).
They are also called labrosones, literally meaning "lip-vibrated
instruments" (Baines, 1993).
A percussion instrument can be any object which produces
a sound by being struck with an implement, shaken, rubbed, scraped, or by
any other action which sets the object into vibration. The term usually applies
to an object used in a rhythmic context and/or with musical intent.
