Every instrument for an orchestra is split
onto four different families. The four families are percussion, strings, brass
and woodwind. There is a person who is
called the conductor. The conductor waves a rod around so that his or her
musicians know what tune to play.
One of the orchestra families is the string
instruments. The string instrument are either plucked or used with a bow. My
favourite string instrument is a violin.
Another family of instruments is
percussion. Percussion instruments are played by striking or shaking the
instruments. The bongos are like drums but played with your hands.
there is
also the woodwind family. The four instruments that are in the woodwind family
are the flute, oboe, clarinet and the bassoon.
The last family is the brass
family. The brass family is also played by blowing air into it.
