Summer Music Camp

Music Camp Rocks! I saw some of the strangest instruments. for example the Didgeridoo. next year I am going to make one. I have learned about the four main groups of instruments.

Woodwinds

Brass

Precussion

Strings

I play the piano. You might think that it is a string instrument, but it is a precussion. A hammer hits the strings to make the sounds.A harp is also in the percussion family. because you pluck the strings to make the sounds.

The drums are a very important part of the percussion family.

I got to play them! I was so excited.

Let's move on to strings. The four basic string instruments are the violin, viola, cello, double bass. Have you ever seen a sitar? It looks really wacky. Have you ever played Sitar Hero?

The Trumpet is a member of the brass family. and they call it the dominat voice because of the loud sound that it plays. Have you ever played a French Horn, if you have you would know that you have to stick your hand in the bell while you play.

One instrument of the woodwind family belongs to Jazz. It is the Saxaphone

I learned alot and had a great time too!
