How do woodwind instruments make a sound is it by pulling a bow across a strain or by blowing air through an instrument, or by the player, vibrating his lips against the metal mouthpiece, or by hitting, shaking, or scraping the instrument?
Woodwind instruments produce sound by blowing air through the instrument. The player does not pull a bow across a string or hit, shake, or scrape the instrument. Instead, woodwind instruments are played by the player vibrating their lips or using a reed to create vibrations in the air column.
