Musical Instruments
The great majority of musical instruments fall readily into one of six major categories: bowed strings, woodwind, brass, percussion, keyboard, and the guitar family, the first four of which form the basis of the modern symphony orchestra.
Bowed string
The four principle orchestral string instruments are (in descending order of overall pitch) the violins (usually divided into two sections, playing individual parts), the violas, the cellos and the double basses. Each have four strings arranged in order of pitch, can be played by means of a bow (arco) or plucked (pizzicato), but whereas the violin and viola are played with the instrument resting between the shoulder and the chin, the larger cello (or, to give it its full title, violoncello) is placed facing outwards between and slightly behind the knees, and the bulky double bass is played standing up or seated on a high stool.
Enthusiasts of Medieval, Renaissance and early Baroque music will encounter earlier varieties of bowed instruments known variously as vielle, viol, or in its earliest form, fidel (hence the modern nickname for a violin, 'fiddle'). The most popular member of the viol family is the cello's precursor, the viola da gamba (literally 'viol of the legs').
Flute
A normally silver-plated (or in more extravagant cases, gold), narrow-bored instrument, held horizontally just under the mouth, and activated by blowing air acrossan aperture at one end of the instrument. Its higher-pitched cousin, the piccolo, is often encountered, although the lower alto flute rather less so. Early forebears include the unkeyed fife. The most popular close relation is the recorder family, largely unkeyed and end-blown in the vertical position.

Clarinet
Like the oboe usually wooden, played vertically and held in the mouth, but with a wider bore and consisting of a single reed which when activated vibrates against a detachable mouthpiece. The standard instrument can be pitched in B flat (usually) or A, and the family is unusually extensive including the higher-pitched E flat, the B flat bass, the rarely-used C, the alto (a modern relative of the basset horn), and the even more obscure double-bass or 'pedal' clarinet. Occasionally the clarinet's 'popular' cousin can be seen in the concert hall, the saxophone. Indefinite pitch

triangle, gong, castanets, whip, rattle, anvil, tambourine, cymbals (struck and clashing), and a variety of drums (side, tenor, bass, tabor, bongo etc.).
Struck
where the strings are actually hit, either by a tangent (e.g. 17th/18th century clavichord), or hammers (e.g. piano, celesta).
Guitar
The 'classical' guitar is typically a Spanish-derived, six-stringed instrument played using a plectrum or the finger-nails, with frets set into the fingerboard. Popular music tends to use amplification for both six-stringed instruments and the four-string bass guitar. The guitar family gradually supplanted the lute which had come to prominence during the Renaissance.
Tuba
Tuba
Not unlike the French horn in basic construction, only more oval in shape and much bigger. The piston valve action is similar to the trumpet, only the valves themselves are situated in the middle
of the instrument. A variety of types and sizes exist aside from the typical concert instrument in F (bass tuba), including the tenor tuba (higher), and double-bass tuba (lower), often referred to as a bombardon in a military or brass band context.
Trumpet
One of the most ancient of all instruments. Played horizontally via a series of valves on the top of the instrument which are opened and closed in various combinations to create different pitches. Occasionally, the piccolo (higher) or bass (lower) trumpets are trumpet. The more notationally limited bugle is rarely heard away from its traditional heard (and the trumpet's 'popular' cousin, the cornet), although more common nowadays in 'authentic' Baroque orchestras (which use instruments of the correct period or copies thereof), is the 'natural' or valveless ilitary context.
Musik Klasik
Musik klasik merupakan istilah luas yang biasanya mengacu pada musik yang dibuat di atau berakar dari tradisikesenian Barat, musik kristiani, dan musik orkestra, mencakup periode dari sekitar abad ke-9 hingga abad ke-21.
Musik klasik Eropa dibedakan dari bentuk musik non-Eropa dan musik populer terutama oleh sistem notasi musiknya, yang sudah digunakan sejak sekitar abad ke-16. Notasi musik barat digunakan oleh komponis untuk memberi petunjuk kepada pembawa musik mengenai tinggi nada, kecepatan, metrum, ritme individual, dan pembawaan tepat suatu karya musik. Hal ini membatasi adanya praktik-praktik seperti improvisasi dan ornamentasi ad libitum yang sering didengar pada musik non-Eropa (bandingkan dengan musik klasik India dan musik tradisional Jepang) maupun musik populer.
Sejak abad ke-2 dan abad ke-3 sebelum Masehi, di Tiongkok dan Mesir ada musik yang mempunyai bentuk tertentu. Dengan mendapat pengaruh dari Mesir dan Babilon, berkembanglah musik Hibrani yang dikemudian hari berkembang menjadi musik Gereja.
Musik itu kemudian disenangi oleh masyarakat, karena adanya pemain-pemain musik yang mengembara serta menyanyikan lagu yang dipakai pada upacara Gereja. Musik itu tersebar di seluruh Eropa kemudian tumbuh berkembang, dan musik instrumental maju dengan pesat setelah ada perbaikan pada alat-alat musik, misalnya biola dan cello. Kemudian timbulah alat musik Orgel. Komponis besar muncul di Jerman, Prancis, Italia, dan Rusia. Dalam abad ke 19, rasa kebangsaan mulai bangun dan berkembang. Oleh karena itu perkembangan musik pecah menurut kebangsaannya masing-masing, meskipun pada permulaannya sama-sama bergaya Romantik. Musik menurut Aristoteles mempunyai kemampuan mendamaikan hati yang gundah mempunyai terapi rekreatif dan menumbuhkan jiwa patriotisme. Mulai abad 20, Prancis menjadi pelopor dengan musik Impresionistis yang segera diganti dengan musik Ekspresionistis.
Musik
Musik adalah bunyi yang diterima oleh individu dan berbeda-beda berdasarkan sejarah, lokasi, budaya dan selera seseorang. Definisi sejati tentang musik juga bermacam-macam:
- Bunyi/kesan terhadap sesuatu yang ditangkap oleh indera pendengar
- Suatu karya seni dengan segenap unsur pokok dan pendukungnya.
- Segala bunyi yang dihasilkan secara sengaja oleh seseorang atau kumpulan dan disajikan sebagai musik
Beberapa orang menganggap musik tidak berwujud sama sekali.
Musik menurut Aristoteles mempunyai kemampuan mendamaikan hati yang gundah, mempunyai terapi rekreatif dan menumbuhkan jiwa patriotisme.
Musik adalah seni yang paling abstrak sekaligus juga merupakan realitas fisika bunyi yang memiliki banyak keunggulan untuk membantu pendidikan watak halus seseorang.Ia telah banyak dikaji oleh para pemikir, kaum agama, pendidik, dan teoretikus seni, selain sebagai seni ia banyak digunakan untuk berbagai keperluan mulai dari tradisi, adat, hiburan, maupun pendidikan.
