Fiddle:
Fiddle is another name for the bowed string musical instrument
more often called a violin. It is also a colloquial term for the
instrument used by players in all genres, including classical music.
Fiddle playing, or fiddling, refers to various styles of music.
Fiddle is also a common term among musicians who play folk
music on the violin. The fiddle is part of many traditional (folk)
styles of music which are aural traditions, taught 'by ear' rather
than via written music.
There are few real distinctions between violins and fiddles,
though more primitively constructed and smaller violins are
more likely to be considered fiddles.
Due to the style of the music played, fiddles may optionally
be set up with a bridge with a flatter arch to allow multiple strings
to be played simultaneously with more ease, such as the droning
in bluegrass music or performing triple stops.
Trombone:
The trombone is a musical instrument in the brass family.
Like all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player’s
vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the
instrument to vibrate. Nearly all trombones have a telescoping
slide mechanism that varies the length of the instrument to
change the pitch. Many modern trombone models also utilise
a rotary valve as a means to lower pitch of the instrument.
Variants such as the valve trombone and superfine have
three valves like those on the trumpet.
The word trombone derives from Italian tromba (trumpet) and
-one (a suffix meaning "large"), so the name means "large trumpet".
The trombone has a predominantly cylindrical bore like its
valved counterpart the baritone and in contrast to its conical
valved counterparts, the euphonium and the horn.
The most frequently encountered trombones are the tenor
trombone and bass trombone. The most common variant,
the tenor, is a non-transposing instrument pitched in B♭,
an octave below the B♭ trumpet and an octave above the B♭
tuba. The once common E♭ alto trombone became less
widely used as improvements in technique extended the
upper range of the tenor, but it is now enjoying a resurgence due
to its lighter sonority which is appreciated in many classical and
early romantic works.
Double Bass:
The double bass or simply the bass (and numerous other names)
is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed string instrument in the
modern symphony orchestra.
It is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave
higher than sounding to avoid excessive ledger lines.
The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that
is tuned in fourths (like a viol), rather than fifths, with strings
usually tuned to E1, A1, D2 and G2.
The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate,
with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the
viol or the violin family.
The double bass is a standard member of the orchestra's
string section, as well as the concert band,
and is featured in concertos, solo and chamber music in Western
classical music.
The bass is used in a range of other genres, such as jazz,
1950s-style blues and rock and roll, rockabilly/psychobilly,
traditional country music, bluegrass, tango and many
types of folk music.
Clarinet:
The clarinet is a musical-instrument family belonging to the group
known as the woodwind instruments.
It has a single-reed mouthpiece, a straight cylindrical tube with
an almost cylindrical bore, and a flared bell.
A person who plays a clarinet is called a clarinetist
(sometimes spelled clarinettist).
The word clarinet may have entered the English language via
the French clarinette (the feminine diminutive of Old French
clarin or clarion), or from Provençal clarin, "oboe".
It would seem however that its real roots are to be found
amongst some of the various names for trumpets used around
the renaissance and baroque eras. Clarion, clarin and the Italian
clarino are all derived from the medieval term clara which
referred to an early form of trumpet.
