What gives a double reed instrument its name?
The reed is the wooden piece that's used to create a sound on a woodwind instrument. Normally, only one reed is used, and it is held against a plastic piece at the top of the instrument. However, in double reed instruments, there are two reeds that are tied together. When you blow air between these reeds, they both vibrate, producing a timbre distinct to double reed instruments.
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.
