They make music and are used in an orchestra. They also play in the lower frequencies.You blow into a contrabasson and the reed vibrates to make the sound. You blow into a tuba and vibrate your lips to make the sound. You bang on a double bass drum and the vibrating membrane (drum surface) makes the sound.
