Double reed instruments include:

  • Bassoon
  • Oboe
  • English Horn
  • Bagpipes (An Aerophone, which has a double reed, but that reed never touches your mouth.)
  • Crumhorn (A Capped Reed instrument,which is very similar to an aerophone, but an aerophone is fed air through bags of air; a capped reed you play like a woodwind or brass, where you blow into it.)

Virtually any instrument classified as a woodwind instrument i.e. the Saxophone family, Clarinet, oboe, among others. The sound of the instrument is generated by the vibration of the reed.

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.

What is double reed music?

How do woodwind instruments work?

Wood wind instruments work by making the lips purchase on a reed and making it vibrate. Clarinets and saxophones are single reeded. Oboes and bassoons are double reeded. With single reed instruments, the instrument is held by the upper teeth and the lower lip makes the reed vibrate. With double reed instruments, the double reed is held by the lips only, which make it vibrate. The 'lip holding' is called 'embouchure'. When learning to play the facial muscles about the mouth have to be used. Playing becomes more proficient as the facial muscles strengthen. All instruments have stops/valves on them to alter the note.
