A woodwind instrument is a type of musical instrument that produces sound when the player blows air through it.

The sound is created either by blowing air across an opening, through a reed, or by vibrating a reed within the instrument. Woodwind instruments are known for their wide range of pitches and expressive capabilities and are commonly used in orchestras and various music ensembles.
