Brass Instruments

A brass instrument is a musical instrument whose tone is produced by the vibration of a player's lips as the player blows into a tubular resonator.

Although most brass instruments are made of brass, not all instruments made from brass fall under this category (for example, saxophones are actually woodwind instruments).
