Is a clarinet in a orchestra?
The bassoon typically sits in the second row of the woodwind section, which is behind the string section. Where the bassoons sit is ultimately a decision made by the conductor.
What do you call a person that plays the bassoon?
Typically the double bassoon (or contrabassoon) is given to the third or fourth chair bassoon, leaving the principal bassoon to play the 1st bassoon part and the 2nd chair bassoon to play the 2nd bassoon part. In some cases the double bassoon part is an auditioned spot, meaning that someone specifically auditioned for the double bassoon.
What is the name given to the lower pitch basoon?
There are two names given to describe the same instrument: double bassoon or contrabassoon.
Is a trumpet tuba french horn saxophone and trombone in the brass family?
Not the saxophone which belongs to the woodwind family. Trumpet, tuba, french horn and trombone are brass instruments. However, the horn may sometimes be classified separately, given that it fits as well with the woodwind instruments (for example within a classic wind quintet). It is thus not uncommon for a conductor to classify the winds as woodwind, horns and brass for practical purposes (for example, when the conductor wants to listen to only one of those groups).
What are all the instruments in the Woodwinds family?
the instruments in the woodwind family are: flute oboe ( i play <3 :) ) alto sax tenor sax bari sax clarinet bass clarinet bassoon ( i play <3 :) ) [I did not touch the original answer. There's something to be said for someone who loves the Bassoon! I will add to the list, though, and touch things up a bit, if I may. The flute infers the piccolo, tenor and bass flutes. The oboe carries with it its relatives the english horn, Baritone oboe and bagpipes. The family of saxes is larger than the four voices mentioned, but the extreme ones are even rarer these days than the Bari Oboe. Clarinets come in many sizes as well, from dinky tubes down to curled instruments that look like a plumber's nightmare, with the alto clarinet between the given bass and 'clarinet.' To the Bassoon must be added the ContraBassoon. In addition, the French Horn has always been considered a member of the woodwinds, having been originally used with flute, oboe and bassoon before the addition of the clarinet to the orchestra. There are other woodwinds worth mention, although not in common use or not used in Orchestras and Bands. The recorder, often taught as a pre-band instrument, was actually very popular and desired from medieval times on, although it fell out of use in the early classical era, and was revived only around the turn of the 20th century. Research into other instruments from the time produced an amazing spectrum of woodwinds, easily identified as such since they weren't played with a brass-type mouthpiece. I won't name them all, but a little searching online with turn them up. There are other instruments that straddle the line between brass and woodwind in a manner that make precise naming problematic: The Russian Bassoon, shaped like a bassoon but sounded with a brass mouthpiece and fingered using keys with bugle-sized pads; the Sarussophone, a similar beast but with metal leaves tied together into a double reed that does not have any wood associated with it,, and a gigantic family of pennywhistles which grace Celtic music today, which were invented in the 18th C as an easy-to-make and cheap-to-sell novelty. The penny whistle uses the same kind of mouthpiece as a recorder, but have been made of sheet metal until recently when recorder-ish wooden models have joined moulded plastic.]

Why are the sound of each woodwind instrument are not the same even if they are in the woodwind family?
because some are played with reeds (clarinet, oboe, basoon) where others are played with head joints (flute, piccolo) a reed vibrates when you blow onto it, and a head join you blow over the hole given on the joint. As a woodwind player myself, i know what im talking about ;) hope this helps!
