woodwind instruments (aerophones) produce sound by means of a vibrating column of air within the pipe. holes along the pipe allow the player to control the length of the column of air, and hence the pitch. there are several ways of making the air column vibrate, and these ways define the subcategories of woodwind instruments. a player may blow across a mouth hole, as in a flute; into a mouthpiece with a single reed, as in a modern-day clarinet or saxophone; or a double reed, as in an oboe or bassoon. all three of these methods of tone production can be found in renaissance instruments.

the original sachs–hornbostel system classified instruments into four main groups; the fifth group, electrophones, was added later by sachs:









































bullet::::1. idiophones, such as the xylophone, which produce sound by vibrating themselves;









































bullet::::2. membranophones, such as drums or kazoos, which produce sound by a vibrating membrane;









































bullet::::3. chordophones, such as the piano or cello, which produce sound by vibrating strings;









































bullet::::4. aerophones, such as the pipe organ or oboe, which produce sound by vibrating columns of air.









































bullet::::5. electrophones, such as the synthesizer or electric bass, which produce sound through electricity and is required to be plugged into an amplifier.
