What is a music band with no string instrument?
Actually, a band is instruments such as brass, woodwinds, percussion, etc. without string instruments. A wind ensemble may or may not include the upright bass. An orchestra would include string instruments such as violins, violas, bass, cellos, and a few brass and woodwinds, and of course percussion.
Is a timpani a woodwind instrument?
An idiophone is any musical instrument which creates sound primarily by way of the instrument's vibrating, without the use of strings or membranes. Therefore, all tuned percussion instruments (primarily keyboard instruments like marimbas, xylophones, vibraphones, etc) are idiophones. Even woodblocks, maracas, and triangles are considered idiophones. Basically any percussion instrument that isn't a "drum" is an idiophone.

Tuned percussion instruments?
There are 'tuned' percussion instruments, 'tunable' percussion instruments, and 'pitched' percussion instruments. 'Pitched' percussion instruments are instruments sounded by striking (generally) which produce a specific pitch or set of pitches. In this category fall a large number of percussion instruments with more than one resonator: xylophones, marimbas, orchestra bells, the piano and celeste (both of which have keyboards which actuate internal hammers) and the like are chromatic, meaning they have a range of notes and can produce 13 pitches to the octave. They are usually arranged to resemble the piano keyboard for easy operation. There are also wood blocks and cow bells, which represent nearly- or mostly- pitched percussion. They have individual resonators, sometimes ganged together to make a unit, and with enough resonators, can be used to play a melody (like the percolator melody in the Maxwell House Coffee commercials of the 1960's). Other varieties of pitched percussion include the membranophones, which are equipped with tension-adjustments (timtoms, tympani, multiple tomtoms, etc.) They are more loosely defined as pitched as they go down in size and up in pitch. Tunable percussion are instruments that are struck to play, but which have the ability to change pitch while playing. The king of this class is the pedal-tympani, which can be changed to different pitches by rocking your foot on the pedal. The musical saw qualifies as well, when struck with a leather hammer rather than bowed. Tuned percussion instruments would be any of the above, once their pitch has been set. It is not a terribly useful term, except when trying to explain to someone why their percussion makes bad sounds.
What is the difference between un pitched and pitched in percussion?
Pitched percussion instruments include examples such as the xylophone, or the glockenspiel, both of which of defined note values that you hit. That is, you can play a "C", "D", "E" etc on a glockenspiel or xylophone, but you do not have partiulcar notes for, say, a drumkit or cymbal set. These are unpitched. The quick way to know if an instrument is pitched is to find out if you are hitting a particular note, or set of notes on the instrument. If you are, it's pitched. If not, it's unpitched.
3 un-pitched percussion instruments?
Three un-pitched percussion instruments include the tambourine, which produces sound through jingles and skin vibrations; the maracas, which consist of rattling seeds or beads inside a hollow shell; and the cajón, a box-shaped drum played by striking the front surface. These instruments create rhythm and texture in music without a definite pitch, allowing for versatile musical expression across various genres.
