Best Answer

The four orchestral familes are percussion, brass, strings and woodwinds. However, this is not the true order because persussion instruments do not always have a defined pitch, and they could be in any pitch range. The other three families, brass, string and woodwinds, can be placed in pitch order:

  • Woodwinds (main and related)
  • Brass
  • Strings
