Definición

  • The air itself is the vibrator in the primary sense. The standing waves are significantly confined within the instrument itself. The air-stream passes through the player's vibrating lips, so gaining intermittent access to the air column which is to be made to vibrate. The body of the instrument is a tube with a predominantly cylindrical bore, and holes to modify the pitch. With keys. With lengths of tube (crooks etc.) to set nominal pitches preparatory to playing.
