Instrument Spotter's Guide

Flash content is currently not supported on your device.

Overview

Look Closely!

Print the Instrument Spotter's Guide and keep it with you. Next time you are at a concert, see which instruments you can spot (use the checkboxes to mark the ones you find).

There are four instrument families in an orchestra: strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion.

You might see some of these instruments when you come to the Kennedy Center, watch a performance by your school band, or at any other concert you attend! Click the above slides to learn more about some of the most-frequently spotted instruments in each family.
