Woodwind instruments, part of the wind family, include many popular instruments such as the flute (and piccolo), clarinet, saxophone and double reed instruments (oboes, bassoons, English horns). Most woodwind instruments share a similar key system which allows players to more easily move between woodwind instruments as compared to brass instruments. It would be common for a saxophone player to be able to play flute or clarinet with a small amount of practice since the fingering systems are so similar.
Although two of the members of the woodwind family are actually not made of wood (the flute and saxophone, they both have a strong organic connection. Early flutes were made from wood, and the saxophone incorporates a wooden reed that vibrates and ultimately produces the instrument’s sound. Woodwind & Brasswind carries many of today’s popular brands including Yamaha, Buffet Crampon, Gemeinhardt, P. Mauriat and more. Need recorders for your classroom?
