wind instrument

In the context of musical performance, air instruments refers to the miming of sound-producing-gestures used in playing musical instruments. Simply put, air instruments are imaginary.

A wind instrument is a musical instrument that you blow into in order to produce sounds, such as a flute, a clarinet, or a recorder. What is this an image of?

You play them by blowing air through the mouthpiece (that's the "wind" in "woodwind") and opening or closing the holes with your fingers to change the pitch. Metal caps called keys cover the holes of most woodwind instruments.

Woodwind instruments (clarinet, oboe) – Air is blown across the reed attached to the mouthpiece of the instrument, vibrating the air down the tube of the instrument to produce sounds. Different notes are produced by covering or opening holes in the instrument tube, changing the reed, and size of the instrument tube.

Wind instruments include the woodwinds, such as the flute, the clarinet, the oboe, and the bassoon. Wind instruments also include brass instruments, such as the trumpet, the horn, the trombone, and the tuba. The saxophone is considered a woodwind, but it may be made of brass.

Wind instruments are typically grouped into two families:

• Brass instruments (horns, trumpets, trombones, euphoniums, and tubas)
• Woodwind instruments (recorders, flutes, oboes, clarinets, saxophones, and bassoons)

The hurdy-gurdy is a string instrument that produces sound by a hand-crank-turned, rosined wheel rubbing against the strings. The wheel functions much like a violin bow, and single notes played on the instrument sound similar to those of a violin.

However, for long distances, the wind can cause the sound signal to bend: the sound is refracted. When the wind is blowing in the same direction as the sound, the sound is refracted towards the ground: the conditions are, therefore, favourable for sound propagation.

The main distinction between these instruments and other wind instruments is the way in which they produce sound. All woodwinds produce sound by splitting the air blown into them on a sharp edge, such as a reed or a fipple. Despite the name, a woodwind may be made of any material, not just wood.
