Dive into the world of orchestral music with Marina Del Conte as she presents the four main categories of instruments: Strings, Woodwinds, Brasses, and Percussion. Strings produce sound through string vibration and are typically played with a bow or plucked, with the harp occasionally joining. Woodwinds are played by blowing through a mouthpiece or reed, with pitch varying by size. Brass instruments utilize valves and the musician's lips to create sound. Percussion instruments provide rhythm through being struck, rubbed, or shaken, forming the heartbeat of the orchestra.
