Woodwinds (17)

Woodwind instruments fall within the "wind" family. The sister of brass, their sound is produced by the vibrations of a bevel or reed.

Their sound therefore varies greatly from instrument to instrument, providing a variety of colours and personalities in an orchestral score. Nevertheless, these instruments shine just as brightly as solosits...
