Orchestra- Information Report


An orchestra is a group of people playing instruments. The instrument families are called the woodwind, brass, string and percussion. 

One of the orchestra families is the string instruments. The string instruments are played by being plucking the strings with your hands and you can also play them with a bow. 

Another family of instruments is called the percussion. They are played by be being hit or shaken. My favourite percussion instrument is the Kettledrums. 

The Bassoon is in the woodwind family. Originally all woodwind instruments were made from wood. 

Lastly there is the brass family they are made from metal. 

When these instruments are played together they make different music.
