Three families of instruments

Instruments make sound in different ways. Strings are bowed or plucked, winds are blown, and percussion is hit or shaken.

Examples

  • A violin and a cello sound when a bow rubs their strings.
  • A flute and a trumpet sound when you blow air into them, and a drum sounds when you hit it.
