Woodwind Instrument

A woodwind instrument is a musical instrument which produces sound when the player blows air against a sharp edge or through a reed, causing the air within its resonator (usually a column of air) to vibrate. Most of these instruments are made of wood but can be made of other materials, such as metals or plastics.

How do I make a woodwind instrument using household items?
Q. It's a project for school and it must make at least three distinct sounds by blowing and covering holes or operating keys. It also must be made of at least three different items. I'm willing to read any instructions, tips, suggestions, ideas, etc. that you may have. Thanks!

A. Not necessarly a household item but get a fresh branch off a tree, not a tiny one but one you can work with. Tap it gently with something to loosen the bark and slip it off without breaking it. With something sharp, cut a tapering wedge (it doesn't have to be deep or wide just enough to allow for the holes you will make later.) down the length of the wood. Cut round holes evenly spaced in the bark and slip it back onto the wood. Depending on how long the branch is and how many holes you cut you should have several note of music.

How hard would it be to switch from Trumpet to a woodwind instrument?
Q. I've been thinking about switching instruments, would it be easier to switch to a different brass instrument (like trombone)???
Asked by emily_yo_301 - Mon Oct 13 22:26:01 2008 - Performing Arts - 3 Answers - 1 Comments

A. I'm a trumpet player so this will come straight from experience. I've played trumpet for about 5-6 years and i switched to baritone which is another brass instrument for 2 years. It was the same fingering for the notes if you played treble clef and mainly the same except you need alot more air support for low brass instruments like baritone, trombone, tuba, and so on. I also am in the process to learning to play the alto sax which is a woodwind instrument and i can tell you this much. It is way easier to learn the standard notes but im getting caught up with fingering the sharp and flat notes. So end of my answer is go for another brass instrument since you have a wide variety of brass instruments to choose from.
