What is the main difference between woodwind and brasswind musical instruments?

While both brass and woodwind instruments are played by blowing air into the mouthpiece, there are fundamental differences. Woodwinds, such as the clarinet and saxophone, use wooden reeds fitted to the mouth piece and it's the vibrations of this reed that create the sound. Brasswinds do not have a reed and the sound is created by the vibrations of the lips on the mouth piece.

Why is the saxophone apart of woodwind?

The woodwind family of instruments is called as such because the noise is produced primarily by blowing air against a reed (the saxophone and clarinet) or across an edge (the flute). However, there are multiple types of each subset of instrument. For example, whistles and recorders are included in the flute family, even though one does not directly blow air across a surface. This is because you are directing the air across a surface by hand position and overall force behind the air itself.

What are the similarities and differences between wind and brass instruments?

One difference is that woodwind instruments use a wooden reed to form the mouthpiece. The reed sits at the back of the mouthpiece (on the bottom lip) and vibrates against the rest of the mouthpiece to help create the sound. Brass and woodwind instruments are both played by blowing into them (or over them in the case of the flute). Brass instruments do not have any moving parts that vibrate to create a sound. They merely amplify the sound created by the players lips vibrating. Woodwind instruments have a reed that vibrates except for the flute which splits a column of air to make vibrations. Brass instruments change their pitch by changing the length of tubing which the air passes through. Woodwind instruments change their pitch by changing the where the air escapes from the instrument.
