The Orchestra - Information Report

An orchestra is a group of people playing different instruments that make beautiful music. The family of instruments are called brass, strings, percussion and woodwind.

 The string section is played by rubbing or plucking with the bow on the strings. 

Another family is percussion. The percussion family is played by hitting or striking. 

The next family is woodwind. Woodwind instruments are played by blowing in the mouth piece. The oboe  like other  instruments were originally made with wood. 

Lastly there is the brass section. Brass instruments are made of metal. 

When these musical instruments are played together they sound beautiful.
