1. The electric guitar is a string instrument. Invented in 1931 the electric guitar is basically a guitar that uses a pick-up to convert the vibration of its strings - which are typically made of metal, and which occurs when a guitarist strums, plucks or finger-picks the strings - into electrical impulses. The electric guitar usually has 6 strings but can sometimes have up to 12 strings.

2.The electronic piano. Keyboards are extremely versatile and very low maintenance. They are popular with younger children and are great for recording and changing performance. The main difference between a keyboard and a piano is that the sound is produced electronically and of course it is portable.

3.The modern piano has 36 black and 52 white keys, making a total of 88 keys and is played using a keyboard. The piano was first invented around 1700 and is used for many types of music including classical, jazz, traditional and popular. Often thought of as the best musical instrument to begin playing it is highly versatile, has a wide-range and a grand ability to change dynamics.

 

4.The guitar is a string instrument with anything from four to eighteen strings with a normal guitar having six strings. The sound is projected acoustically and it is typically played by strumming (or plucking) the strings with one hand and fretting the strings with the other hand.

5.Drums are percussion instruments and are the oldest form of instruments, existing in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. They are naturally played by being struck with different tools known as beaters; anything from wooden sticks to wire brushes to bare hands. Some drums are tunable whilst others are non-tunable. Drums produce sounds by the vibration of a stretched membrane known as the head. The head covers either one or both ends of a hollow body which is known as the shell.

6.The violin is a string instrument and is the smallest and highest-pitched instrument in its family. Typically, the violin has four strings and is usually played by drawing a bow across its strings. Violins are important musical instruments in a wide variety of musical genres including jazz, country, metal and folk music.

7.The saxophone is closely related to the clarinet and is a woodwind instrument. They are typically made of brass and played with a mouthpiece, much like that of the clarinet. Invented by Adolphe Sax in 1840, the saxophone is most commonly used in classical music, marching and military bands and jazz.

Playing the saxophone increases a child's awareness of sound whilst increasing their levels of patience and perseverance. Learning the saxophone also develops their fine motor skills, concentration and memory skills whilst teaching discipline and enhancing creativity.

8.The flute belongs to the woodwind family and produces its sound from the flow of air across an opening. The pitch of the sound is changed when the player opens or closes the various holes in its body. Beginners' flutes are often made from nickel or silver-plated brass whilst professionals use solid silver, gold and sometimes even platinum flutes. Wooden flutes produce a dark sound whereas silver flutes produce a brighter sound.

9.The cello is a bowed stringed orchestral instrument that is versatile with a rich voice. A member of the violin family, cellos are most closely associated with European classical music. The cello is normally made from wood and the top and back are traditionally hand-carved.

10.Clarinet actually means 'little trumpet' and belongs to a family of woodwind instruments. It is played using a single-reed mouthpiece and its cylindrical shape is mainly responsible for the clarinet's distinctive musical notes. The tone quality can vary greatly with the musician, the music, the instrument, the mouthpiece, and the reed.
