Bucket Drum:
Bucket drumming(street drumming) is drumming
on plastic buckets, glass bottles, cardbox, pots, and
pans or other objects to create melodies.
The most common object used by bucket drummers are
five-gallon plastic buckets.
The exact origins and history of bucket drumming is unclear,
But you would occasionally find drummers performing
along city streets and in subway tunnels in
New York City in the 1980’s.
Larry Wright from Bronx is widely considered the
first “major drummer” to use plastic buckets
instead of a standard drum set.

Fiddle:
Fiddle is another name for the bowed string musical instrument
more often called a violin. It is also a colloquial term for the
instrument used by players in all genres, including classical music.
Fiddle playing, or fiddling, refers to various styles of music.
Fiddle is also a common term among musicians who play folk
music on the violin. The fiddle is part of many traditional (folk)
styles of music which are aural traditions, taught 'by ear' rather
than via written music.

There are few real distinctions between violins and fiddles,
though more primitively constructed and smaller violins are
more likely to be considered fiddles.
Due to the style of the music played, fiddles may optionally
be set up with a bridge with a flatter arch to allow multiple strings
to be played simultaneously with more ease, such as the droning
in bluegrass music or performing triple stops.

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise
a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.

The word trombone derives from Italian tromba (trumpet) and
-one (a suffix meaning "large"), so the name means "large trumpet".
The trombone has a predominantly cylindrical bore like its
valved counterpart the baritone and in contrast to its conical
valved counterparts, the euphonium and the horn.
The most frequently encountered trombones are the tenor
trombone and bass trombone. The most common variant,
the tenor, is a non-transposing instrument pitched in B♭,
an octave below the B♭ trumpet and an octave above the B♭
tuba. The once common E♭ alto trombone became less
widely used as improvements in technique extended the
upper range of the tenor, but it is now enjoying a resurgence due
to its lighter sonority which is appreciated in many classical and
early romantic works.

Double Bass:
The double bass or simply the bass (and numerous other names)
is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed string instrument in the
modern symphony orchestra.
It is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave
higher than sounding to avoid excessive ledger lines.
The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that
is tuned in fourths (like a viol), rather than fifths, with strings
usually tuned to E1, A1, D2 and G2.
The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate,
with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the
viol or the violin family.
The double bass is a standard member of the orchestra's
string section, as well as the concert band,
and is featured in concertos, solo and chamber music in Western
classical music.
The bass is used in a range of other genres, such as jazz,
1950s-style blues and rock and roll, rockabilly/psychobilly,
traditional country music, bluegrass, tango and many
types of folk music.

Clarinet:
The clarinet is a musical-instrument family belonging to the group
known as the woodwind instruments.
It has a single-reed mouthpiece, a straight cylindrical tube with
an almost cylindrical bore, and a flared bell.
A person who plays a clarinet is called a clarinetist
(sometimes spelled clarinettist).

The word clarinet may have entered the English language via
the French clarinette (the feminine diminutive of Old French
clarin or clarion), or from Provençal clarin, "oboe".
It would seem however that its real roots are to be found
amongst some of the various names for trumpets used around
the renaissance and baroque eras. Clarion, clarin and the Italian
clarino are all derived from the medieval term clara which
referred to an early form of trumpet.

Mandolin:
A mandolin (Italian: mandolino pronounced; literally "small mandola”)
is a musical instrument in the lute family and is usually plucked
with a plectrum or "pick”.
It commonly has four courses of doubled metal strings tuned
in unison (8 strings), although five (10 strings)
and six (12 strings) course versions also exist.
The courses are normally tuned in a succession of perfect fifths.
It is the soprano member of a family that includes the mandola,
octave mandolin, mandocello and mandobass.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Banjo:
The banjo is a four-, five- or (occasionally) six-stringed
instrument with a thin membrane stretched over a frame
or cavity as a resonator, called the head.
The membrane, or head, is typically made of plastic,
although animal skin is still occasionally but rarely used,
and the frame is typically circular.
Early forms of the instrument were fashioned by Africans
in America, adapted from African instruments of similar design.

The banjo is frequently associated with country, folk,
Irish traditional and bluegrass music.
Historically, the banjo occupied a central place in African
American traditional music, before becoming popular in
the minstrel shows of the 19th century.
The banjo, with the fiddle, is a mainstay of American
old-time music. It is also very frequently used in
Traditional Jazz.

Fiddle:
Fiddle is another name for the bowed string musical instrument

Harmonica:
The harmonica, also French harp,
blues harp, and mouth organ,
is a free reed wind instrument used
worldwide in many musical genres,
notably in blues, American folk music,
jazz, country, and rock and roll.
There are many types of harmonica,
including diatonic, chromatic, tremolo,
octave, orchestral, and bass versions.

A harmonica is played by using the mouth
(lips and/or tongue) to direct air into and out
of one or more holes along a mouthpiece.
Behind the holes are chambers containing at
least one reed.

A harmonica reed is a flat elongated spring
typically made of brass, stainless steel, or bronze,
which is secured at one end over a slot that serves
as an airway. When the free end is made to vibrate
by the player's air, it alternately blocks and unblocks
the airway to produce sound.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, use an amplifier
that can electronically manipulate and shape the tone.
Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body,
but a solid body was eventually found more suitable,
as it was less prone to feedback.
Electric guitars have had a continuing profound
influence on popular culture.

Bass Guitar
The bass guitar is a stringed instrument played
primarily with the fingers or thumb, by plucking,
slapping, popping, strumming, tapping, thumping,
or picking with a plectrum, often known as a pick.
The bass guitar is similar in appearance and construction
to an electric guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length,
and four to six strings or courses.
The four-string bass, by far the most common,
is usually tuned the same as the double bass,
which corresponds to pitches one octave lower
than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar (E, A, D, and G).
The bass guitar is a transposing instrument,
as it is notated in bass clef an octave higher than it
sounds to avoid excessive ledger lines.
Like the electric guitar, the bass guitar is plugged
into an amplifier and speaker for live performances.
In the 1930s, musician and inventor Paul Tutmarc from
Seattle, Washington, who was manufacturing lap steel guitars,
developed the first electric string bass in its modern form,
a fretted instrument designed to be played horizontally.

drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.
Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical
instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually
unchanged for thousands of years.

Drums may be played individually, with the player using a single
drum, and some drums such as the djembe are almost always
played in this way. Others are normally played in a set of two or
more, all played by the one player, such as bongo drums and
timpani. A number of different drums together with cymbals
form the basic modern drum kit.

and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Washboard:
The washboard and frottoir (from Cajun French "frotter", to rub)
are used as a percussion instrument, employing the ribbed metal
surface of the cleaning device as a rhythm instrument.
As traditionally used in jazz, zydeco,skiffle, jug band, and
old-time music, the washboard remained in its wooden frame
and is played primarily by tapping, but also scraping the
washboard with thimbles. Often the washboard has additional
traps, such as awood block, a cowbell, and even small cymbals.

Conversely, the frottoir (zydeco rubboard) dispenses
with the frame and consists simply of the metal
ribbing hung around the neck.
It is played primarily with spoon handles or bottle openers in a
combination of strumming, scratching, tapping and rolling.
The frottoir or vest frottoir is played as a stroked percussion instrument, often in a band with a drummer,
while the washboard generally is a replacement for drums.
In Zydeco bands, the frottoir is usually played with bottle openers,
to make a louder sound. It tends to play counter-rhythms to
the drummer. In a jug band, the washboard can also be stroked
with a single whisk broom and functions as the drums for the band,
playing only on the back-beat for most songs, a substitute for a
snare drum. In a four-beat measure, the washboard will stroke
on the 2-beat and the 4-beat.

Cello:
The cello or violoncello is a bowed string instrument with four
strings tuned in perfect fifths.
It is a member of the violin family of musical instruments, which also includes the violin and viola.
The cello is used as a solo musical instrument, as well as in chamber music ensembles,
string orchestras, as a member of the string section of
symphony orchestras, and some rock bands. It is the
second-largest bowed string instrument in the modern
symphony orchestra, the double bass being the largest.

Cellos were derived from other mid- to large-sized bowed
instruments in the 16th century, such as the viola da gamba,
and the generally smaller and squarer viola da braccio,
and such instruments made by members of the Amati family
of luthiers.
Cello parts are generally written in the bass clef,
but both tenor and treble clefs are used for higher-range parts.
A person who plays the cello is called a cellist or violoncellist.

Banjo:
The banjo is a four-, five- or (occasionally) six-stringed
instrument with a thin membrane stretched over a frame
or cavity as a resonator, called the head.
The membrane, or head, is typically made of plastic,
although animal skin is still occasionally but rarely used,
and the frame is typically circular.
Early forms of the instrument were fashioned by Africans
in America, adapted from African instruments of similar design.

The banjo is frequently associated with country, folk,
Irish traditional and bluegrass music.
Historically, the banjo occupied a central place in African
American traditional music, before becoming popular in
the minstrel shows of the 19th century.
The banjo, with the fiddle, is a mainstay of American
old-time music. It is also very frequently used in
Traditional Jazz.

Double Bass:
The double bass or simply the bass (and numerous other names)
is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed string instrument in the
modern symphony orchestra.
It is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave
higher than sounding to avoid excessive ledger lines.
The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that
is tuned in fourths (like a viol), rather than fifths, with strings
usually tuned to E1, A1, D2 and G2.
The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate,
with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the
viol or the violin family.

The double bass is a standard member of the orchestra's
string section, as well as the concert band,
and is featured in concertos, solo and chamber music in Western
classical music.
The bass is used in a range of other genres, such as jazz,
1950s-style blues and rock and roll, rockabilly/psychobilly,
traditional country music, bluegrass, tango and many
types of folk music.

The double bass is played either with a bow (arco) or by plucking
the strings (pizzicato). In orchestral repertoire and tango music,
both arco and pizzicato are employed. In jazz, blues,
and rockabilly, pizzicato is the norm.
While classical music uses just the natural sound produced
acoustically by the instrument, in jazz, blues, and related genres,
the bass is typically amplified with an amplifier and speaker.

Fiddle:
Fiddle is another name for the bowed string musical instrument
more often called a violin. It is also a colloquial term for the
instrument used by players in all genres, including classical music.
Fiddle playing, or fiddling, refers to various styles of music.
Fiddle is also a common term among musicians who play folk
music on the violin. The fiddle is part of many traditional (folk)
styles of music which are aural traditions, taught 'by ear' rather
than via written music.

There are few real distinctions between violins and fiddles,
though more primitively constructed and smaller violins are
more likely to be considered fiddles.
Due to the style of the music played, fiddles may optionally
be set up with a bridge with a flatter arch to allow multiple strings
to be played simultaneously with more ease, such as the droning
in bluegrass music or performing triple stops.

In order to produce a "brighter" tone, compared to the deeper tones
of gut or synthetic core strings, fiddlers often prefer to use steel
strings on their instruments. Among musical styles,
fiddling tends to produce rhythms focused on dancing, with
associated quick note changes, whereas classical music tends
to contain more vibrato and sustained notes.
It is less common for a classically trained violinist to play folk
music, but today, many fiddlers have classical training.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)

The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, use an amplifier
that can electronically manipulate and shape the tone.
Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body,
but a solid body was eventually found more suitable,
as it was less prone to feedback.
Electric guitars have had a continuing profound
influence on popular culture.

Mandolin:
A mandolin (Italian: mandolino pronounced; literally "small mandola”)
is a musical instrument in the lute family and is usually plucked
with a plectrum or "pick”.
It commonly has four courses of doubled metal strings tuned
in unison (8 strings), although five (10 strings)
and six (12 strings) course versions also exist.
The courses are normally tuned in a succession of perfect fifths.
It is the soprano member of a family that includes the mandola,
octave mandolin, mandocello and mandobass.

Accordion:
The accordion in its contemporary form was first
created in Europe in the early 1800s,
and its basic form is believed been invented
in Berlin in 1822 by Christian Friedrich Ludwig Buschmann.
An instrument called “accordion” was first patented
by Cyril Demian in 1829 in Austria.
The accordion is classified as a “free reed instrument.”
Accordion is a box-shaped musical instruments of the
bellows-driven free-reed aerophone type,
colloquially referred to as a squeezebox.
These first accordions were bisonoric diatonic button accordions,
which means they had buttons instead of piano keys,
and each button sounded different pitches depending
whether when air was pushed in or pulled out using the bellows.
Accordion has traditionally used to perform folk or ethnic music,
popular music, and transcriptions from the operatic
and light-classical music repertoire.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.
Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical
instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually
unchanged for thousands of years.

Drums may be played individually, with the player using a single
drum, and some drums such as the djembe are almost always
played in this way. Others are normally played in a set of two or
more, all played by the one player, such as bongo drums and
timpani. A number of different drums together with cymbals
form the basic modern drum kit.

Harmonium:
The harmonium is also known as peti or baja.
Harmonium is popular to the present day,
and the harmonium remains an important instrument
in many genres of Indian music. For example, it is a staple
of vocal North Indian classical music concerts.
It is commonly found in Indian homes.

Though derived from the designs developed in France,
the harmonium was developed further in India in unique ways,
such as addition of drone stops and a scale-changing mechanism.

The hand pumped Harmonium required one hand to pump
they were more portable and comfortable when played on the floor.

Why the hand pumped Harmonium is so popular in India?
Indian music has no chords, one hand can be free to pump
and sitting on the floor to perform is very natural to India Music player. Also it is easier to perform than Sitar.

The cajón is the most widely used Afro-Peruvian
musical instrument since the late 18th century.
Slaves of west and central African origin in the Americas,
specifically Perú, are considered to be the source
of the cajón drum. Currently, the instrument is common
in musical performance throughout some of the Americas and Spain.
A cajón is nominally a six sided,
box-shaped percussion instrument originally from Peru,
played by slapping the front or rear faces with the hands,
fingers, or sometimes various implements such as brushes,
mallets, or sticks.

Saxophone:
The saxophone is a family of woodwind instruments.
Saxophones are usually made of brass and played
with a single-reedmouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet.
The saxophone family was invented by the Belgian
instrument maker Adolphe Sax in 1840. Sax wanted
to create a group or series of instruments that would
be the most powerful and vocal of the woodwinds,
and the most adaptive of the brass—that would fill
the vacant middle ground between the two sections.
He patented the saxophone on June 28, 1846,
in two groups of seven instruments each.
The saxophone uses a single-reed mouthpiece
similar to that of the clarinet. Most saxophonists
use reeds made from Arundo donax cane,
but since the 20th century some have also been
made of fiberglass and other composite materials.

Trumpets:
A trumpet is a musical instrument.
It has the highest register in the brass family.
As a signaling device in battle or hunting,
trumpets have a very long history,
dating back to at least 1500 BC;
they have been used as musical instruments
since the 15th century.
Trumpets are used in art music styles,
where they are an instrument in the orchestra
and in concert bands, and in popular music styles
such as jazz.

They are played by blowing air through almost-closed lips,
producing a "buzzing" sound that starts a standing wave
vibration in the air column inside the instrument.

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise
a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.
The word trombone derives from Italian tromba (trumpet) and
-one (a suffix meaning "large"), so the name means "large trumpet".
The trombone has a predominantly cylindrical bore like its
valved counterpart the baritone and in contrast to its conical
valved counterparts, the euphonium and the horn.

Clarinet:
The clarinet is a musical-instrument family belonging to the group
known as the woodwind instruments.
It has a single-reed mouthpiece, a straight cylindrical tube with
an almost cylindrical bore, and a flared bell.
A person who plays a clarinet is called a clarinetist
(sometimes spelled clarinettist).
The word clarinet may have entered the English language via
the French clarinette (the feminine diminutive of Old French
clarin or clarion), or from Provençal clarin, "oboe".
It would seem however that its real roots are to be found
amongst some of the various names for trumpets used around
the renaissance and baroque eras. Clarion, clarin and the Italian
clarino are all derived from the medieval term clara which
referred to an early form of trumpet.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.

Violin:
The violin, viola, and cello were first made in the early 16th century,
in Italy. Violins are likely to have been developed from a number of
other string instruments of the 15th and 16th centuries, including
the vielle, rebec, and lira da braccio. The history of bowed string
instruments in Europe goes back to the 9th century with the
Byzantine lira.

The violin, also known as a fiddle, is a string instrument,
usually with four strings tuned in perfect fifths.
It is the smallest, highest-pitched member of the
violin family of string instruments.

Saxophone:
The saxophone is a family of woodwind instruments.
Saxophones are usually made of brass and played
with a single-reedmouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet.
The saxophone family was invented by the Belgian
instrument maker Adolphe Sax in 1840. Sax wanted
to create a group or series of instruments that would
be the most powerful and vocal of the woodwinds,
and the most adaptive of the brass—that would fill
the vacant middle ground between the two sections.
He patented the saxophone on June 28, 1846,
in two groups of seven instruments each.
The saxophone uses a single-reed mouthpiece
similar to that of the clarinet. Most saxophonists
use reeds made from Arundo donax cane,
but since the 20th century some have also been
made of fiberglass and other composite materials.
The saxophone mouthpiece is larger than that of
the clarinet, has a wider inner chamber, and lacks
the cork-covered tenon of a clarinet mouthpiece
because the saxophone neck inserts into the
mouthpiece whereas the clarinet mouthpiece
piece is inserted into the barrel.

Sousaphone:
The sousaphone is a type of tuba designed to be easier to play
than the concert tuba while standing or marching.
It is widely employed in marching bandsand various other
musical genres. Designed to fit around the body of the musician
and supported by the left shoulder, the sousaphone may be
readily played while being carried. It is useful in all types of
bands that play outdoors, as it directs the sound forward,
unlike a traditional upright tuba.
The first sousaphone was built by James Welsh Pepper in 1893 at
the request of American bandmaster & composer: John Philip
Sousa, and is named after him.

Baritone Saxophone:
The baritone saxophone or "bari sax" (commonly abbreviated bs
or bars to distinguish it from the less frequently used bass
saxophone) is one of the largest members of the saxophone family,
only being smaller than the bass, contrabass and sub contrabass
saxophones. It is the lowest-pitched saxophone in common use,
and uses a mouthpiece, reed, and ligature that are larger than
the tenor, alto and soprano saxophones, the other commonly
found members of the family.

Saxophone:
The saxophone is a family of woodwind instruments.
Saxophones are usually made of brass and played
with a single-reedmouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet.
The saxophone family was invented by the Belgian
instrument maker Adolphe Sax in 1840. Sax wanted
to create a group or series of instruments that would
be the most powerful and vocal of the woodwinds,
and the most adaptive of the brass—that would fill
the vacant middle ground between the two sections.
He patented the saxophone on June 28, 1846,
in two groups of seven instruments each.
The saxophone uses a single-reed mouthpiece
similar to that of the clarinet.

Accordion:
The accordion in its contemporary form was first
created in Europe in the early 1800s,
and its basic form is believed been invented
in Berlin in 1822 by Christian Friedrich Ludwig Buschmann.
An instrument called “accordion” was first patented
by Cyril Demian in 1829 in Austria.
The accordion is classified as a “free reed instrument.”
Accordion is a box-shaped musical instruments of the
bellows-driven free-reed aerophone type,
colloquially referred to as a squeezebox.

Trumpet:
Trumpet has the highest register in the brass family.
As a signaling device in battle or hunting,
trumpets have a very long history, dating back to at least 1500 BC;
they have been used as musical instruments since the 15th
century. Trumpets are used in art music styles,
where they are an instrument in the orchestra
and in concert bands, and in popular music styles such as jazz.

Clarinet:
The clarinet is a musical-instrument family belonging to the group
known as the woodwind instruments.
It has a single-reed mouthpiece, a straight cylindrical tube with
an almost cylindrical bore, and a flared bell.
A person who plays a clarinet is called a clarinetist
(sometimes spelled clarinettist).
The word clarinet may have entered the English language via
the French clarinette (the feminine diminutive of Old French
clarin or clarion), or from Provençal clarin, "oboe".

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise
a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.
The word trombone derives from Italian tromba (trumpet) and
-one (a suffix meaning "large"), so the name means "large trumpet".

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, use an amplifier
that can electronically manipulate and shape the tone.
Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body,
but a solid body was eventually found more suitable,
as it was less prone to feedback.
Electric guitars have had a continuing profound
influence on popular culture.

The guitar is used in a wide variety of musical genres worldwide.
It is recognized as a primary instrument in genres such as blues,
bluegrass, country, flamenco, folk,jazz, jota, mariachi,
metal, punk, reggae, rock, soul, and many forms of pop.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,

to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.
Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical
instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually
unchanged for thousands of years.

Drums may be played individually, with the player using a single
drum, and some drums such as the djembe are almost always
played in this way. Others are normally played in a set of two or
more, all played by the one player, such as bongo drums and
timpani. A number of different drums together with cymbals
form the basic modern drum kit.

Baritone Saxophone:
The baritone saxophone was created in 1846 by the Belgian
instrument maker Adolphe Sax as one of a family of 14 instruments.
The saxophone was created to be a tonal link between the
woodwinds and brasses, which Sax believed to be lacking.
The baritone saxophone or "bari sax" (commonly abbreviated bs or
bars to distinguish it from the less frequently used bass saxophone)
is one of the largest members of the saxophone family,
only being smaller than the bass, contrabass and sub contrabass
saxophones. It is the lowest-pitched saxophone in common use,
and uses a mouthpiece, reed, and ligature that are larger than
the tenor, alto and soprano saxophones, the other commonly
found members of the family.
The baritone saxophone is commonly used in classical music
(such as concert bands, chamber music and solo repertoire),
military bands, marching bands and jazz (such as big bands,
jazz combos, etc.).

Tenor Saxophone:
The tenor saxophone is a medium-sized member of the saxophone
family, a group of instruments invented by Adolphe Sax in the
1840s. The tenor and the alto are the two most commonly used
saxophones. The tenor is pitched in the key of B♭
(while the Alto is pitched in E♭), and written as a transposing
instrument in the treble clef, sounding an octave and a major
second lower than the written pitch.
Modern tenor saxophones which have a high F♯ key have a range
from A♭2 to E5 (concert) and are therefore pitched one octave
below the soprano saxophone.
People who play the tenor saxophone are known as
"tenor saxophonists" or "tenor sax players".

The tenor saxophone uses a larger mouthpiece,
reed and ligature than the alto and soprano saxophones.
Visually, it is easily distinguished by the bend in its neck,
or its crook, near the mouthpiece.The alto saxophone lacks
this and its neck goes straight to the mouthpiece.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than

Vibraphone:
The vibraphone (also known as the vibraharp or simply the vibes)
is a musical instrument in the struck idiophone subfamily of
the percussion family.

The vibraphone resembles the xylophone, marimba,
and glockenspiel. Each bar is paired with a resonator tube that
has a motor-driven butterfly valve at its upper end.
The valves are mounted on a common shaft, which produces a
tremolo or vibrato effect while spinning.
The vibraphone also has a sustain pedal similar to that on a piano.
With the pedal up, the bars are all damped and produce a
shortened sound. With the pedal down,
they sound for several seconds.

The vibraphone is commonly used in jazz music,
in which it often plays a featured role and was a defining element
of the sound of mid-20th-century "Tiki lounge" exotica,
as popularized by Arthur Lyman.
It is the second most popular solo keyboard percussion instrument
in classical music, after the marimba, and is part of the standard
college-level percussion performance education.
It is a standard instrument in the modern percussion section
for orchestras and concert bands.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Bass Guitar
The bass guitar is a stringed instrument played
primarily with the fingers or thumb, by plucking,
slapping, popping, strumming, tapping, thumping,
or picking with a plectrum, often known as a pick.
The bass guitar is similar in appearance and construction
to an electric guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length,
and four to six strings or courses.
The four-string bass, by far the most common,
is usually tuned the same as the double bass,
which corresponds to pitches one octave lower
than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar (E, A, D, and G).
The bass guitar is a transposing instrument,
as it is notated in bass clef an octave higher than it
sounds to avoid excessive ledger lines.
Like the electric guitar, the bass guitar is plugged
into an amplifier and speaker for live performances.
In the 1930s, musician and inventor Paul Tutmarc from
Seattle, Washington, who was manufacturing lap steel guitars,
developed the first electric string bass in its modern form,
a fretted instrument designed to be played horizontally.

bluegrass, country, flamenco, folk,jazz, jota, mariachi,
metal, punk, reggae, rock, soul, and many forms of pop.

Cajon:
The cajón is the most widely used Afro-Peruvian
musical instrument since the late 18th century.
Slaves of west and central African origin in the Americas,
specifically Perú, are considered to be the source
of the cajón drum. Currently, the instrument is common
in musical performance throughout some of the Americas and Spain.
A cajón is nominally a six sided,
box-shaped percussion instrument originally from Peru,
played by slapping the front or rear faces with the hands,
fingers, or sometimes various implements such as brushes,
mallets, or sticks.

Harmonica:
The harmonica, also French harp,
blues harp, and mouth organ,
is a free reed wind instrument used
worldwide in many musical genres,
notably in blues, American folk music,
jazz, country, and rock and roll.
There are many types of harmonica,
including diatonic, chromatic, tremolo,
octave, orchestral, and bass versions.

A harmonica is played by using the mouth
(lips and/or tongue) to direct air into and out
of one or more holes along a mouthpiece.
Behind the holes are chambers containing at
least one reed.

A harmonica reed is a flat elongated spring
typically made of brass, stainless steel, or bronze,
which is secured at one end over a slot that serves
as an airway. When the free end is made to vibrate
by the player's air, it alternately blocks and unblocks
the airway to produce sound.

Double Bass:
The double bass or simply the bass (and numerous other names)
is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed string instrument in the
modern symphony orchestra.
It is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave
higher than sounding to avoid excessive ledger lines.
The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that
is tuned in fourths (like a viol), rather than fifths, with strings
usually tuned to E1, A1, D2 and G2.
The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate,
with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the
viol or the violin family.

The double bass is a standard member of the orchestra's
string section, as well as the concert band,
and is featured in concertos, solo and chamber music in Western
classical music.
The bass is used in a range of other genres, such as jazz,
1950s-style blues and rock and roll, rockabilly/psychobilly,
traditional country music, bluegrass, tango and many
types of folk music.

One-man band:
A one-man band is a musician who plays
a number of instruments simultaneously
using their hands, feet, limbs, and various
mechanical and/or electronic contraptions.
The simplest type of "one-person band” —
a singer accompanying themselves on acoustic guitar
and harmonica mounted in a metal "harp rack” below
the mouth — is often used by buskers.

More complicated setups may include wind instruments
strapped around the neck, a large bass drum mounted on
the musician's back with a beater which is connected
to a foot pedal, cymbals strapped between the knees or
triggered by a pedal mechanism, tambourines andmaracas
tied to the limbs, and a stringed instrument strapped over
the shoulders (e.g., a banjo, ukulele or guitar).

Since the development of Musical Instrument Digital Interface
(MIDI) in the 1980s, musicians have also incorporated
chest-mounted MIDI drum pads, foot-mounted electronic drum
triggers, and electronic pedal keyboards into their set-ups.

is a free reed wind instrument used
worldwide in many musical genres,
notably in blues, American folk music,
jazz, country, and rock and roll.
There are many types of harmonica,
including diatonic, chromatic, tremolo,
octave, orchestral, and bass versions.

A harmonica is played by using the mouth
(lips and/or tongue) to direct air into and out
of one or more holes along a mouthpiece.
Behind the holes are chambers containing at
least one reed.

A harmonica reed is a flat elongated spring
typically made of brass, stainless steel, or bronze,
which is secured at one end over a slot that serves
as an airway. When the free end is made to vibrate
by the player's air, it alternately blocks and unblocks
the airway to produce sound.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, use an amplifier
that can electronically manipulate and shape the tone.
Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body,
but a solid body was eventually found more suitable,
as it was less prone to feedback.
Electric guitars have had a continuing profound
influence on popular culture.

Jingle Bell:
A jingle bell or sleigh bell is a type of bell which produces a
distinctive 'jingle' sound, especially in large numbers.
They find use in many areas as a percussion instrument,
including the classic sleigh bell sound and morris dancing.
They are typically used as a cheaper alternative to small
'classic' bells.

The simplest jingle bells are produced from a single piece
of sheet metal bent into a roughly spherical shape to contain
a small ball bearing or short piece of metal rod.
This method of production results in the classic two- or
four-leaved shape. Two halves may also be crimped together,
resulting in a ridge around the middle.
A glass marble may also be used as the ringer on larger bells.

Bass Guitar:
The bass guitar is a stringed instrument played
primarily with the fingers or thumb, by plucking,
slapping, popping, strumming, tapping, thumping,
or picking with a plectrum, often known as a pick.
The bass guitar is similar in appearance and construction
to an electric guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length,
and four to six strings or courses.
The four-string bass, by far the most common,
is usually tuned the same as the double bass,
which corresponds to pitches one octave lower
than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar (E, A, D, and G).
The bass guitar is a transposing instrument,
as it is notated in bass clef an octave higher than it
sounds to avoid excessive ledger lines.
Like the electric guitar, the bass guitar is plugged
into an amplifier and speaker for live performances.
In the 1930s, musician and inventor Paul Tutmarc from
Seattle, Washington, who was manufacturing lap steel guitars,
developed the first electric string bass in its modern form,
a fretted instrument designed to be played horizontally.

drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.
Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical
instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually
unchanged for thousands of years.

Drums may be played individually, with the player using a single
drum, and some drums such as the djembe are almost always
played in this way. Others are normally played in a set of two or
more, all played by the one player, such as bongo drums and
timpani. A number of different drums together with cymbals
form the basic modern drum kit.

Double Bass:
The double bass or simply the bass (and numerous other names)
is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed string instrument in the
modern symphony orchestra.
It is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave
higher than sounding to avoid excessive ledger lines.
The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that
is tuned in fourths (like a viol), rather than fifths, with strings
usually tuned to E1, A1, D2 and G2.
The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate,
with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the
viol or the violin family.

The double bass is a standard member of the orchestra's
string section, as well as the concert band,
and is featured in concertos, solo and chamber music in Western
classical music.
The bass is used in a range of other genres, such as jazz,
1950s-style blues and rock and roll, rockabilly/psychobilly,
traditional country music, bluegrass, tango and many
types of folk music.

Banjo:
The banjo is a four-, five- or (occasionally) six-stringed
instrument with a thin membrane stretched over a frame
or cavity as a resonator, called the head.
The membrane, or head, is typically made of plastic,
although animal skin is still occasionally but rarely used,
and the frame is typically circular.
Early forms of the instrument were fashioned by Africans
in America, adapted from African instruments of similar design.

The banjo is frequently associated with country, folk,
Irish traditional and bluegrass music.
Historically, the banjo occupied a central place in African
American traditional music, before becoming popular in
the minstrel shows of the 19th century.
The banjo, with the fiddle, is a mainstay of American
old-time music. It is also very frequently used in
Traditional Jazz.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

that can electronically manipulate and shape the tone.
Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body,
but a solid body was eventually found more suitable,
as it was less prone to feedback.
Electric guitars have had a continuing profound
influence on popular culture.

Fiddle:
Fiddle is another name for the bowed string musical instrument
more often called a violin. It is also a colloquial term for the
instrument used by players in all genres, including classical music.
Fiddle playing, or fiddling, refers to various styles of music.
Fiddle is also a common term among musicians who play folk
music on the violin. The fiddle is part of many traditional (folk)
styles of music which are aural traditions, taught 'by ear'
rather than via written music.

There are few real distinctions between violins and fiddles,
though more primitively constructed and smaller violins are
more likely to be considered fiddles. Due to the style of the music
played, fiddles may optionally be set up with a bridge
with a flatter arch to allow multiple strings to be played
simultaneously with more ease, such as the droning in
bluegrass music or performing triple stops.

trumpet:
A trumpet is a musical instrument.
It has the highest register in the brass family.
As a signaling device in battle or hunting,
trumpets have a very long history,
dating back to at least 1500 BC;
they have been used as musical instruments
since the 15th century.

Trumpets are used in art music styles,
where they are an instrument in the orchestra
and in concert bands, and in popular music styles
such as jazz.

They are played by blowing air through almost-closed lips,
producing a "buzzing" sound that starts a standing wave
vibration in the air column inside the instrument.

Since the late 15th century they have primarily been
constructed of brass tubing, usually bent twice
into a rounded oblong shape.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,

Violin:
The violin, viola, and cello were first made in the early 16th century,
in Italy. Violins are likely to have been developed from a number of
other string instruments of the 15th and 16th centuries, including
the vielle, rebec, and lira da braccio. The history of bowed string
instruments in Europe goes back to the 9th century with the
Byzantine lira.

The violin, also known as a fiddle, is a string instrument,
usually with four strings tuned in perfect fifths.
It is the smallest, highest-pitched member of the
violin family of string instruments.

One-man band:
A one-man band is a musician who plays
a number of instruments simultaneously
using their hands, feet, limbs, and various
mechanical and/or electronic contraptions.
The simplest type of "one-person band” —
a singer accompanying themselves on acoustic guitar
and harmonica mounted in a metal "harp rack” below
the mouth — is often used by buskers.

More complicated setups may include wind instruments
strapped around the neck, a large bass drum mounted on
the musician's back with a beater which is connected
to a foot pedal, cymbals strapped between the knees or
triggered by a pedal mechanism, tambourines andmaracas
tied to the limbs, and a stringed instrument strapped over
the shoulders (e.g., a banjo, ukulele or guitar).

Since the development of Musical Instrument Digital Interface
(MIDI) in the 1980s, musicians have also incorporated
chest-mounted MIDI drum pads, foot-mounted electronic drum
triggers, and electronic pedal keyboards into their set-ups.

Tuba:
The tuba is the largest and lowest-pitched musical instrument
in the brass family. Like all brass instruments, sound is produced
by moving air past the lips, causing them to vibrate or "buzz"
into a large cupped mouthpiece.
It first appeared in the mid 19th-century, making it one of the
newer instruments in the modern orchestra and concert band.
The tuba largely replaced the ophicleide.
Tuba is Latin for 'trumpet'.

In America a person who plays the tuba is known as a tubaist
or tubist. In the United Kingdom a person who plays the tuba
in an orchestra is known simply as a tuba player;
in a brass band or military band they are known as a bass player.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and

timpani. A number of different drums together with cymbals
form the basic modern drum kit.

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise
a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.

The word trombone derives from Italian tromba (trumpet) and
-one (a suffix meaning "large"), so the name means "large trumpet".
The trombone has a predominantly cylindrical bore like its
valved counterpart the baritone and in contrast to its conical
valved counterparts, the euphonium and the horn.
The most frequently encountered trombones are the tenor
trombone and bass trombone. The most common variant,
the tenor, is a non-transposing instrument pitched in B♭,
an octave below the B♭ trumpet and an octave above the B♭
tuba.

The xiqin is believed to have originated from the Xi people
of Central Asia, and have come to China in the 10th century.
Erhu is a two-stringed bowed musical instrument,
more specifically a spike fiddle, which may also be called
a "southern fiddle", and sometimes known in the Western
world as the "Chinese violin” or a "Chinese two-stringed fiddle”.
It is used as a solo instrument as well as in
small ensembles and large orchestras.
It is the most popular of the huqin family of traditional bowed
string instruments used by various ethnic groups of China.
A very versatile instrument, the erhu is used in both traditional
and contemporary music arrangements, such as in pop, rock, jazz, etc.

Baritone Saxophone:
The baritone saxophone was created in 1846 by the Belgian
instrument maker Adolphe Sax as one of a family of 14 instruments.
The saxophone was created to be a tonal link between the
woodwinds and brasses, which Sax believed to be lacking.
The baritone saxophone or "bari sax" (commonly abbreviated bs or
bars to distinguish it from the less frequently used bass saxophone)
is one of the largest members of the saxophone family,
only being smaller than the bass, contrabass and sub contrabass
saxophones. It is the lowest-pitched saxophone in common use,
and uses a mouthpiece, reed, and ligature that are larger than
the tenor, alto and soprano saxophones, the other commonly
found members of the family.
The baritone saxophone is commonly used in classical music
(such as concert bands, chamber music and solo repertoire),
military bands, marching bands and jazz (such as big bands,
jazz combos, etc.).

Tenor Saxophone:
The tenor saxophone is a medium-sized member of the saxophone
family, a group of instruments invented by Adolphe Sax in the
1840s. The tenor and the alto are the two most commonly used
saxophones. The tenor is pitched in the key of B♭
(while the Alto is pitched in E♭), and written as a transposing
instrument in the treble clef, sounding an octave and a major
second lower than the written pitch.
Modern tenor saxophones which have a high F♯ key have a range
from A♭2 to E5 (concert) and are therefore pitched one octave
below the soprano saxophone.
People who play the tenor saxophone are known as
"tenor saxophonists" or "tenor sax players".

The tenor saxophone uses a larger mouthpiece,
reed and ligature than the alto and soprano saxophones.
Visually, it is easily distinguished by the bend in its neck,
or its crook, near the mouthpiece.The alto saxophone lacks
this and its neck goes straight to the mouthpiece.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause

a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.

The word trombone derives from Italian tromba (trumpet) and
-one (a suffix meaning "large"), so the name means "large trumpet".
The trombone has a predominantly cylindrical bore like its
valved counterpart the baritone and in contrast to its conical
valved counterparts, the euphonium and the horn.

Trumpet:
A trumpet is a musical instrument.
It has the highest register in the brass family.
As a signaling device in battle or hunting,
trumpets have a very long history,
dating back to at least 1500 BC;
they have been used as musical instruments
since the 15th century.

Trumpets are used in art music styles,
where they are an instrument in the orchestra
and in concert bands, and in popular music styles
such as jazz.
They are played by blowing air through almost-closed lips,
producing a "buzzing" sound that starts a standing wave
vibration in the air column inside the instrument.

Saxophone:
The saxophone is a family of woodwind instruments.
Saxophones are usually made of brass and played
with a single-reedmouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet.
The saxophone family was invented by the Belgian
instrument maker Adolphe Sax in 1840. Sax wanted
to create a group or series of instruments that would
be the most powerful and vocal of the woodwinds,
and the most adaptive of the brass—that would fill
the vacant middle ground between the two sections.
He patented the saxophone on June 28, 1846,
in two groups of seven instruments each.
The saxophone uses a single-reed mouthpiece
similar to that of the clarinet.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Bass Guitar
The bass guitar is a stringed instrument played
primarily with the fingers or thumb, by plucking,
slapping, popping, strumming, tapping, thumping,
or picking with a plectrum, often known as a pick.
The bass guitar is similar in appearance and construction
to an electric guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length,
and four to six strings or courses.
The four-string bass, by far the most common,
is usually tuned the same as the double bass,
which corresponds to pitches one octave lower
than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar (E, A, D, and G).
The bass guitar is a transposing instrument,
as it is notated in bass clef an octave higher than it
sounds to avoid excessive ledger lines.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.
Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical
instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually
unchanged for thousands of years.

Sousaphone:
The sousaphone is a type of tuba designed to be easier to play
than the concert tuba while standing or marching.
It is widely employed in marching bandsand various other
musical genres. Designed to fit around the body of the musician
and supported by the left shoulder, the sousaphone may be
readily played while being carried. It is useful in all types of
bands that play outdoors, as it directs the sound forward,
unlike a traditional upright tuba.
The instrument is named after American bandmaster and
composer John Philip Sousa, who popularized its use in his band.

The first sousaphone was built by James Welsh Pepper in 1893 at
the request of John Philip Sousa, who was dissatisfied with the
hélicons in use by the United States Marine Band. Some sources
credit C.G. Conn with its construction, because of the first
sousaphone he built later in 1898.

Trumpet:
A trumpet is a musical instrument.
It has the highest register in the brass family.
As a signaling device in battle or hunting,
trumpets have a very long history,
dating back to at least 1500 BC;
they have been used as musical instruments
since the 15th century.

Trumpets are used in art music styles,
where they are an instrument in the orchestra

They are played by blowing air through almost-closed lips,
producing a "buzzing" sound that starts a standing wave
vibration in the air column inside the instrument.
Since the late 15th century they have primarily been
constructed of brass tubing, usually bent twice
into a rounded oblong shape.

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise
a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.

Clarinet:
The clarinet is a musical-instrument family belonging to the group
known as the woodwind instruments.
It has a single-reed mouthpiece, a straight cylindrical tube with
an almost cylindrical bore, and a flared bell.
A person who plays a clarinet is called a clarinetist
(sometimes spelled clarinettist).

The word clarinet may have entered the English language via
the French clarinette (the feminine diminutive of Old French
clarin or clarion), or from Provençal clarin, "oboe".
It would seem however that its real roots are to be found
amongst some of the various names for trumpets used around
the renaissance and baroque eras. Clarion, clarin and the Italian
clarino are all derived from the medieval term clara which
referred to an early form of trumpet.

Saxophone:
The saxophone is a family of woodwind instruments.

Since the late 15th century they have primarily been
constructed of brass tubing, usually bent twice
into a rounded oblong shape.

Tuba:
The tuba is the largest and lowest-pitched musical instrument
in the brass family. Like all brass instruments, sound is produced
by moving air past the lips, causing them to vibrate or "buzz"
into a large cupped mouthpiece.
It first appeared in the mid 19th-century, making it one of the
newer instruments in the modern orchestra and concert band.
The tuba largely replaced the ophicleide.
Tuba is Latin for 'trumpet'.

In America a person who plays the tuba is known as a tubaist
or tubist. In the United Kingdom a person who plays the tuba
in an orchestra is known simply as a tuba player;
in a brass band or military band they are known as a bass player.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.
Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical
instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually
unchanged for thousands of years.

Drums may be played individually, with the player using a single
drum, and some drums such as the djembe are almost always
played in this way. Others are normally played in a set of two or
more, all played by the one player, such as bongo drums and
timpani. A number of different drums together with cymbals
form the basic modern drum kit.

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise
a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.

The word trombone derives from Italian tromba (trumpet) and
-one (a suffix meaning "large"), so the name means "large trumpet".
The trombone has a predominantly cylindrical bore like its
valved counterpart the baritone and in contrast to its conical
valved counterparts, the euphonium and the horn.
The most frequently encountered trombones are the tenor
trombone and bass trombone. The most common variant,
the tenor, is a non-transposing instrument pitched in B♭,
an octave below the B♭ trumpet and an octave above the B♭
tuba.

He patented the saxophone on June 28, 1846,
in two groups of seven instruments each.
The saxophone uses a single-reed mouthpiece
similar to that of the clarinet. Most saxophonists
use reeds made from Arundo donax cane,
but since the 20th century some have also been
made of fiberglass and other composite materials.

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise

The most frequently encountered trombones are the tenor
trombone and bass trombone. The most common variant,
the tenor, is a non-transposing instrument pitched in B♭,
an octave below the B♭ trumpet and an octave above the B♭
tuba.

Banjo:
The banjo is a four-, five- or (occasionally) six-stringed
instrument with a thin membrane stretched over a frame
or cavity as a resonator, called the head.
The membrane, or head, is typically made of plastic,
although animal skin is still occasionally but rarely used,
and the frame is typically circular.
Early forms of the instrument were fashioned by Africans
in America, adapted from African instruments of similar design.

Cornet:
Cornets first appeared as separate instrumental parts in
19th century French compositions.
The name cornet derives from corne, meaning horn,
itself from Latin cornu.
The cornet is a brass instrument similar to the trumpet but
distinguished from it by its conical bore, more compact shape,
and mellower tone quality.
The most common cornet is a transposing instrument in B♭,
though there is also a soprano cornet in E♭. Both are
unrelated to the renaissance and early baroque cornett.

Double Bass:
The double bass or simply the bass (and numerous other names)
is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed string instrument in the
modern symphony orchestra.
It is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave
higher than sounding to avoid excessive ledger lines.
The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that
is tuned in fourths (like a viol), rather than fifths, with strings
usually tuned to E1, A1, D2 and G2.
The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate,
with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the
viol or the violin family.

The first sousaphone was built by James Welsh Pepper in 1893 at
the request of American bandmaster & composer: John Philip
Sousa, and is named after him.

Baritone Saxophone:
The baritone saxophone or "bari sax" (commonly abbreviated bs
or bars to distinguish it from the less frequently used bass
saxophone) is one of the largest members of the saxophone family,
only being smaller than the bass, contrabass and sub contrabass
saxophones. It is the lowest-pitched saxophone in common use,
and uses a mouthpiece, reed, and ligature that are larger than
the tenor, alto and soprano saxophones, the other commonly
found members of the family.

Saxophone:
The saxophone is a family of woodwind instruments.
Saxophones are usually made of brass and played
with a single-reedmouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet.
The saxophone family was invented by the Belgian

in two groups of seven instruments each.
The saxophone uses a single-reed mouthpiece
similar to that of the clarinet.

Accordion:
The accordion in its contemporary form was first
created in Europe in the early 1800s,
and its basic form is believed been invented
in Berlin in 1822 by Christian Friedrich Ludwig Buschmann.
An instrument called “accordion” was first patented
by Cyril Demian in 1829 in Austria.
The accordion is classified as a “free reed instrument.”
Accordion is a box-shaped musical instruments of the
bellows-driven free-reed aerophone type,
colloquially referred to as a squeezebox.

Washboard:
The washboard and frottoir (from Cajun French "frotter", to rub)
are used as a percussion instrument, employing the ribbed metal
surface of the cleaning device as a rhythm instrument.
As traditionally used in jazz, zydeco,skiffle, jug band, and
old-time music, the washboard remained in its wooden frame
and is played primarily by tapping, but also scraping the
washboard with thimbles. Often the washboard has additional
traps, such as awood block, a cowbell, and even small cymbals.
Conversely, the frottoir (zydeco rubboard) dispenses
with the frame and consists simply of the metal
ribbing hung around the neck.
It is played primarily with spoon handles or bottle openers in a
combination of strumming, scratching, tapping and rolling.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, use an amplifier
that can electronically manipulate and shape the tone.
Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body,
but a solid body was eventually found more suitable,
as it was less prone to feedback.
Electric guitars have had a continuing profound
influence on popular culture.

The guitar is used in a wide variety of musical genres worldwide.
It is recognized as a primary instrument in genres such as blues,
bluegrass, country, flamenco, folk,jazz, jota, mariachi,
metal, punk, reggae, rock, soul, and many forms of pop.

Accordion:
The accordion in its contemporary form was first
created in Europe in the early 1800s,
and its basic form is believed been invented
in Berlin in 1822 by Christian Friedrich Ludwig Buschmann.
An instrument called “accordion” was first patented
by Cyril Demian in 1829 in Austria.
The accordion is classified as a “free reed instrument.”
Accordion is a box-shaped musical instruments of the
bellows-driven free-reed aerophone type,
colloquially referred to as a squeezebox.
These first accordions were bisonoric diatonic button accordions,
which means they had buttons instead of piano keys,
and each button sounded different pitches depending
whether when air was pushed in or pulled out using the bellows.
Accordion has traditionally used to perform folk or ethnic music,
popular music, and transcriptions from the operatic
and light-classical music repertoire.

Washboard:
The washboard and frottoir (from Cajun French "frotter", to rub)
are used as a percussion instrument, employing the ribbed metal
surface of the cleaning device as a rhythm instrument.
As traditionally used in jazz, zydeco,skiffle, jug band, and
old-time music, the washboard remained in its wooden frame
and is played primarily by tapping, but also scraping the
washboard with thimbles. Often the washboard has additional
traps, such as awood block, a cowbell, and even small cymbals.

Conversely, the frottoir (zydeco rubboard) dispenses
with the frame and consists simply of the metal
ribbing hung around the neck.
It is played primarily with spoon handles or bottle openers in a
combination of strumming, scratching, tapping and rolling.
The frottoir or vest frottoir is played as a stroked percussion instrument, often in a band with a drummer,
while the washboard generally is a replacement for drums.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,
nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other
chordophones by its construction and tuning.
The modern guitar was preceded by thegittern,
the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar,
and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed
to the development of the modern six-string instrument.

Bass Guitar
The bass guitar is a stringed instrument played
primarily with the fingers or thumb, by plucking,
slapping, popping, strumming, tapping, thumping,
or picking with a plectrum, often known as a pick.
The bass guitar is similar in appearance and construction
to an electric guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length,
and four to six strings or courses.
The four-string bass, by far the most common,
is usually tuned the same as the double bass,
which corresponds to pitches one octave lower
than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar (E, A, D, and G).
The bass guitar is a transposing instrument,
as it is notated in bass clef an octave higher than it
sounds to avoid excessive ledger lines.
Like the electric guitar, the bass guitar is plugged
into an amplifier and speaker for live performances.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.
Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical
instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually
unchanged for thousands of years.

Sousaphone, Trombone, Trumpet, Saxophone & Drum Performance @ Central Park

Cool Fun Stuff 2017-08-06 | Sousaphone, Trombone, Trumpet, Saxophone & Drum Performance @ Central Park

Sousaphone:
The sousaphone is a type of tuba designed to be easier to play
than the concert tuba while standing or marching.
It is widely employed in marching bandsand various other
musical genres. Designed to fit around the body of the musician
and supported by the left shoulder, the sousaphone may be
readily played while being carried. It is useful in all types of
bands that play outdoors, as it directs the sound forward,
unlike a traditional upright tuba.
The instrument is named after American bandmaster and
composer John Philip Sousa, who popularized its use in his band.

The first sousaphone was built by James Welsh Pepper in 1893 at
the request of John Philip Sousa, who was dissatisfied with the
hélicons in use by the United States Marine Band. Some sources
credit C.G. Conn with its construction, because of the first
sousaphone he built later in 1898.
Sousa wanted a tuba-like instrument that would send sound
upward and over the band, much like a concert (upright) tuba.
The new instrument had an oversized bell pointing straight up,
rather than the directional bell of a normal helicon.

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise
a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.

The word trombone derives from Italian tromba (trumpet) and
-one (a suffix meaning "large"), so the name means "large trumpet".
The trombone has a predominantly cylindrical bore like its
valved counterpart the baritone and in contrast to its conical
valved counterparts, the euphonium and the horn.
The most frequently encountered trombones are the tenor
trombone and bass trombone. The most common variant,
the tenor, is a non-transposing instrument pitched in B♭,
an octave below the B♭ trumpet and an octave above the B♭
tuba. The once common E♭ alto trombone became less
widely used as improvements in technique extended the
upper range of the tenor, but it is now enjoying a resurgence due
to its lighter sonority which is appreciated in many classical and
early romantic works.

Trumpet:
A trumpet is a musical instrument.
It has the highest register in the brass family.
As a signaling device in battle or hunting,
trumpets have a very long history,
dating back to at least 1500 BC;
they have been used as musical instruments
since the 15th century.
Trumpets are used in art music styles,
where they are an instrument in the orchestra
and in concert bands, and in popular music styles
such as jazz.

Saxophone:
The saxophone is a family of woodwind instruments.
Saxophones are usually made of brass and played
with a single-reedmouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet.
The saxophone family was invented by the Belgian
instrument maker Adolphe Sax in 1840. Sax wanted
to create a group or series of instruments that would
be the most powerful and vocal of the woodwinds,
and the most adaptive of the brass—that would fill
the vacant middle ground between the two sections.
He patented the saxophone on June 28, 1846,
in two groups of seven instruments each.
The saxophone uses a single-reed mouthpiece
similar to that of the clarinet. Most saxophonists
use reeds made from Arundo donax cane,
but since the 20th century some have also been
made of fiberglass and other composite materials.
The saxophone mouthpiece is larger than that of
the clarinet, has a wider inner chamber, and lacks
the cork-covered tenon of a clarinet mouthpiece
because the saxophone neck inserts into the
mouthpiece whereas the clarinet mouthpiece
piece is inserted into the barrel.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and
struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick,
to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the
underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than
the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause
drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll.

instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually
unchanged for thousands of years.

Accordion, Trumpet & Guitar Trio Performance @ Edgbaston Street, Birmingham

Cool Fun Stuff 2017-08-05 | Accordion, Trumpet & Guitar Trio Performance @ Edgbaston Street, Birmingham

Trumpet:
A trumpet is a musical instrument.
It has the highest register in the brass family.
As a signaling device in battle or hunting,
trumpets have a very long history,
dating back to at least 1500 BC;
they have been used as musical instruments
since the 15th century.

Trumpets are used in art music styles,
where they are an instrument in the orchestra
and in concert bands, and in popular music styles
such as jazz.

They are played by blowing air through almost-closed lips,
producing a "buzzing" sound that starts a standing wave
vibration in the air column inside the instrument.

Since the late 15th century they have primarily been
constructed of brass tubing, usually bent twice
into a rounded oblong shape.

Accordion:
The accordion in its contemporary form was first
created in Europe in the early 1800s,

Baritone Saxophone:
The baritone saxophone was created in 1846 by the Belgian
instrument maker Adolphe Sax as one of a family of 14 instruments.
The saxophone was created to be a tonal link between the
woodwinds and brasses, which Sax believed to be lacking.
The baritone saxophone or "bari sax" (commonly abbreviated bs or
bars to distinguish it from the less frequently used bass saxophone)
is one of the largest members of the saxophone family,
only being smaller than the bass, contrabass and sub contrabass
saxophones. It is the lowest-pitched saxophone in common use,
and uses a mouthpiece, reed, and ligature that are larger than
the tenor, alto and soprano saxophones, the other commonly
found members of the family.

Trumpet:
A trumpet is a musical instrument.
It has the highest register in the brass family.
As a signaling device in battle or hunting, trumpets have a very
long history, dating back to at least 1500 BC;
they have been used as musical instruments since 15th century.
Trumpets are used in art music styles, where they are an
instrument in the orchestra and in concert bands, and in
popular music styles such as jazz.
They are played by blowing air through almost-closed lips,
producing a "buzzing" sound that starts a standing wave
vibration in the air column inside the instrument.
Since the late 15th century they have primarily been
constructed of brass tubing, usually bent twice
into a rounded oblong shape.

Tenor Saxophone:
The tenor saxophone is a medium-sized member of the saxophone
family, a group of instruments invented by Adolphe Sax in the
1840s. The tenor and the alto are the two most commonly used
saxophones. The tenor is pitched in the key of B♭
(while the Alto is pitched in E♭), and written as a transposing
instrument in the treble clef, sounding an octave and a major
second lower than the written pitch.
Modern tenor saxophones which have a high F♯ key have a range
from A♭2 to E5 (concert) and are therefore pitched one octave
below the soprano saxophone.
People who play the tenor saxophone are known as
"tenor saxophonists" or "tenor sax players".

Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to

The trombone has a predominantly cylindrical bore like its
valved counterpart the baritone and in contrast to its conical
valved counterparts, the euphonium and the horn.

Clarinet:
The clarinet is a musical-instrument family belonging to the group
known as the woodwind instruments.
It has a single-reed mouthpiece, a straight cylindrical tube with
an almost cylindrical bore, and a flared bell.
A person who plays a clarinet is called a clarinetist
(sometimes spelled clarinettist).
The word clarinet may have entered the English language via
the French clarinette (the feminine diminutive of Old French
clarin or clarion), or from Provençal clarin, "oboe".
It would seem however that its real roots are to be found
amongst some of the various names for trumpets used around
the renaissance and baroque eras.

Drum:
The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical
instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system,
it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane,
called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell
and struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum
stick, to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on
the underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower

Banjo:
The banjo is a four-, five- or (occasionally) six-stringed
instrument with a thin membrane stretched over a frame
or cavity as a resonator, called the head.
The membrane, or head, is typically made of plastic,
although animal skin is still occasionally but rarely used,
and the frame is typically circular.
Early forms of the instrument were fashioned by Africans
in America, adapted from African instruments of similar design.

The banjo is frequently associated with country, folk,
Irish traditional and bluegrass music.
Historically, the banjo occupied a central place in African
American traditional music, before becoming popular in
the minstrel shows of the 19th century.
The banjo, with the fiddle, is a mainstay of American
old-time music. It is also very frequently used in
Traditional Jazz.

Mandolin:
A mandolin (Italian: mandolino pronounced; literally "small mandola”)
is a musical instrument in the lute family and is usually plucked
with a plectrum or "pick”.
It commonly has four courses of doubled metal strings tuned
in unison (8 strings), although five (10 strings)
and six (12 strings) course versions also exist.
The courses are normally tuned in a succession of perfect fifths.
It is the soprano member of a family that includes the mandola,
octave mandolin, mandocello and mandobass.

Guitar :
The guitar is a popular musical instrument classified as
a string instrument with anywhere from 4 to 18 strings,
usually having 6. The sound is projected either acoustically
or through electrical amplification.
It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings
with the right hand while fretting (or pressing against the fret)
the strings with the left hand.
The guitar is a type of chordophone,
traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut,

Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, use an amplifier
that can electronically manipulate and shape the tone.
Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body,
but a solid body was eventually found more suitable,
as it was less prone to feedback.
Electric guitars have had a continuing profound
influence on popular culture.

Double Bass:
The double bass or simply the bass (and numerous other names)
is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed string instrument in the
modern symphony orchestra.
It is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave
higher than sounding to avoid excessive ledger lines.
The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that
is tuned in fourths (like a viol), rather than fifths, with strings
usually tuned to E1, A1, D2 and G2.
The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate,
with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the
viol or the violin family.

The double bass is a standard member of the orchestra's
string section, as well as the concert band,
and is featured in concertos, solo and chamber music in Western
classical music.
The bass is used in a range of other genres, such as jazz,
1950s-style blues and rock and roll, rockabilly/psychobilly,
traditional country music, bluegrass, tango and many
types of folk music.

Bucket Drum:
Bucket drumming(street drumming) is drumming
on plastic buckets, glass bottles, cardbox, pots, and
pans or other objects to create melodies.
The most common object used by bucket drummers are
five-gallon plastic buckets.
The exact origins and history of bucket drumming is unclear,
But you would occasionally find drummers performing
along city streets and in subway tunnels in
New York City in the 1980’s.
Larry Wright from Bronx is widely considered the
first “major drummer” to use plastic buckets
instead of a standard drum set.

Cajon:
The cajón is the most widely used Afro-Peruvian
musical instrument since the late 18th century.
Slaves of west and central African origin in the Americas,
specifically Perú, are considered to be the source
of the cajón drum. Currently, the instrument is common
in musical performance throughout some of the Americas and Spain.
A cajón is nominally a six sided,
box-shaped percussion instrument originally from Peru,
played by slapping the front or rear faces with the hands,
fingers, or sometimes various implements such as brushes,
mallets, or sticks.

ErHu:
The erhu can be traced back to instruments introduced
into China more than a thousand years ago.
It is believed to have evolved from the xiqin.
The xiqin is believed to have originated from the Xi people
of Central Asia, and have come to China in the 10th century.
Erhu is a two-stringed bowed musical instrument,
more specifically a spike fiddle, which may also be called
a "southern fiddle", and sometimes known in the Western
world as the "Chinese violin” or a "Chinese two-stringed fiddle”.
It is used as a solo instrument as well as in
small ensembles and large orchestras.
It is the most popular of the huqin family of traditional bowed
string instruments used by various ethnic groups of China.
A very versatile instrument, the erhu is used in both traditional
and contemporary music arrangements, such as in pop, rock, jazz, etc.
