String
Woodwind
Brass
Percussion
String instruments produce sound when you pluck their strings. The vibration from plucking the string is transmitted to the body of the instrument.
Woodwind instruments are blown into in order to produce sounds. The length of the air column affects the pitch of the sound note produced. The longer the air column, the lower the pitch is produced. The shorter the air column, the higher the pitch is.
Directions: Learn about the four types of musical instruments! The instruments you are about to study will fall into one of these four categories.
Similar to woodwinds, brass instruments you blow into in order to produce sound. They create a much different type of sound than woodwind (more of a buzzing sound you hear in jazz and blues music). These instruments are made of brass or other types of metal material.
Percussion instruments produce sound when someone beats or strikes the surface. They can also be shaken. Some instruments are beaten with hands or sticks.
