Musical Instruments introduces many of the most popular instruments in Western music today from the traditional to the electronic used in rock and jazz. Drawings explain how groups of instruments and different voices produce their sounds. Each instrument is illustrated with a brief description of how it is made and played, examples of music written for it as well as some well-known performers.
