Disorganized Essay Example

I've always been interested in music, and learning about different musical instruments. When I was a kid I played clarinet in the school band, and since that time I eventually found out that instruments are grouped into families. There are four instrument families, but I only know of three. The three instrument families are the string instruments, reed instruments, and percussion instruments.

One of the instrument families is called the string instruments. The string instruments have strings that are bowed or plucked. When the instrument is played, the string vibrates. One example of a string instrument is the violin. The violin has spread all around the world, and there have been many famous violin players. I never played violin myself, I played the clarinet.

Another one of the instrument families is called the reed instruments. A reed instrument is an instrument that has a reed you blow through to make the sound. Instead of the string vibrating in a string instrument, the reed vibrates. One example of a reed instrument is the clarinet, which is what I played in the school band. The clarinet has been around for a long time as well, even longer than the saxophone.

Another one of the four instrument families is called the percussion instruments. With a percussion instrument, the instrument is being hit by something, like how a drum is hit with a stick for example. Another example of a percussion instrument is the piano. Some would think that the piano is a string instrument because it has strings in it, but the strings are being hit with little hammers, which makes it a percussion instrument.

Being so interested in music and instruments, I came to find out that each instrument belongs to a certain instrument family. There is the string instruments, the reed instruments, and the percussion instruments. There is a fourth family that I haven't quite discovered yet, but I am interested in learning about that family and what instruments belong to it.
