Instruments of the Orchestra

Orchestra

An orchestra is a large group of musicians who are divided into smaller groups according to the type of instrument they play. These smaller groups are called "sections."

In most orchestras, the sections are called "strings," "woodwinds," "brass," and "percussion."

Together, all of the musicians in the different sections are led by a conductor.
