MUSICAL FAMILIES

MUSICAL FAMILIES

The musical families are the group of instruments that  make the sound in the same way.

STRING FAMILY / SECTION

String instruments like the violin or the double bass make a sound when their strings vibrate as we play them.

PERCUSSION FAMILY / SECTION

Percussion instruments like the drum or the castanets make a sound when we bang, scratch or shake them.

WIND FAMILY/SECTION

Wind instruments like the saxophone or the flute have one or more tubes inside them.

When we blow into the tubes, the air in the tubes vibrates and produces a sound.
