Best Answer

The flute, piccolo, Clarinet and Bass Clarinet, tho oboe and English Horn, the bassoon and the contra bassoon. The horn is not a woodwind, of course, but many composers consider it an "honorary" woodwind because of its usefulness and frequent employment in a woodwind ensemble. The Saxophone is neither fish nor fowl - it is considered a woodwind in a woodwind ensemble, and a brass instrument in a brass ensemble.
