A brass aerophone is a musical instrument that produces sound by sympathetic vibration of air in a tubular resonator in sympathy with the vibration of the player's lips. Brass instruments are also called labrosones, literally meaning lip-vibrated instruments.
By Robert Wilde. By 1914, the six major powers of Europe were split into two alliances, which would â with the exception of Italy â form the two warring sides in World War One. Britain, France and Russia were in the Triple Entente, while Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy were in the Triple Alliance.
Taking into consideration World War I from start to finish, the clear leaders of the Triple Alliance (or, Triple Entente) were the nations of France and Great Britain. Imp â¦ erial Russia was another major nation in the Alliance until being knocked out late in the war, while the United States became a major associate in 1917.
