Woodwinds
Woodwinds are a family of musical instruments that produce sound by vibrating air inside a tube. They include instruments like flutes, clarinets, oboes, and bassoons. The player blows air into or across an opening, causing the air inside to vibrate and generate sound. Many woodwinds use keys to change the pitch, and some are made from wood (hence the name), while others are metal or plastic. They are known for their versatile tone and are common in orchestras, bands, and various musical styles.
