Answer:
Reed instrument, in music, any of several wind instruments (aerophones) that sound when the player’s breath or air from a wind chamber causes a reed (a thin blade of cane or metal) to vibrate, thereby setting up a sound wave in an enclosed air column (in reed pipes) or in the open air (usually free reeds). Reed pipes have single or double reeds. Double reeds (as in the shawm) are believed to be older. They were originally tubes of cane pinched flat to form a slit whose edges vibrated in and out under the player’s breath. Later, two blades were tied together, or (in Europe) one was doubled back and slit. Single reeds may hit against a frame (beating reeds), as in a clarinet mouthpiece, or may vibrate freely through a closely fitting frame (free reeds), as in an accordion; the term single reed usually refers to a beating reed.
