Musical instrument is device or object used to produce music; it refers to any thing used to produce sounds. The study of musical instrument as an academic field of study is called organ logy. Over time there has been moves to arrange the chronology of musical instruments across cultures, this has proved fruitless
for reasons that all cultures advance at different level and have access to different materials, different methods have been used to attain a positive chronological progression
of musical instrument but known has presented a responsive result, for instance anthropologists has find it difficult to determine which instruments are more by attempting to compare musical instruments made by two cultures that existed at the same time but differed in organization, culture and handicraft.Musical instruments are of different types such as: Brass whose tone is produced by vibration of the lips as the player blows into a tubular resonator; examples are trumpet, trombone, tuba, baritone, euphonium, French horn, flugelhorn etc. Woodwind which produces sound when the player blows air against an edge of, or opening in, the instrument, causing the air to vibrate within a resonator. Most commonly, the player blows against a thin piece of wood called a reed examples are Bansuri, dizi, flute, fife, etc. String musical instrument that produces sound by means of vibrating strings, examples are piano, violin, viola, cello, bass, mandolin, guitar, sitar, harp, etc. Percussion musical instrument is any object which produces a sound by being hit with an implement, shaken, rubbed, scraped, or by any other action which sets the object into vibration, examples of percussion instruments are the xylophone, piano, triangle, etc. Musical instruments are also being labeled using different methods such as:
The ancient system dating from the 1st century BC, divides instruments into four classification groups regarded as instruments where the sound is produced by vibrating strings; instruments where the sound is produced by vibrating columns of air; percussion instruments made of wood or metal; and percussion instruments with skin heads. The Sachs-Hornbostel classified musical instruments into four categories comprising of Chordophones, such as the piano or cello, which produces sound by vibrating strings; they are sorted into zithers, keyboard chordophones, lyres, harps, lutes, and bowed chordophones. Another is the erophones, such as the pipe organ or oboe, which produce sound by vibrating columns of air; they are sorted into free aerophones, flutes, organs, reedpipes, and lip-vibrated aerophones. Also of the Idiophones, such as the xylophone and rattle, which produces sound by vibrating themselves; they are sorted into concussion, percussion, shaken, scraped, split, and plucked idiophones. And lastly the Membranophones, such as drums or kazoos, which produces sound by a vibrating membrane; they are sorted into predrum membranophones, tubular drums, friction idiophones, kettledrums, friction drums, and mirlitons.
