The traditional orchestra is composed of string instruments such as the violin, viola, cello and bass, and may include woodwinds, brass, and percussion instruments. While traditionally, the woodwinds section was made up of flutes, oboes, clarinets and bassoons, it has since expanded in the 20th century to include the piccolo, English horn, saxophone, and a greater number of flutes, oboes, and clarinets. The brass section has expanded in the 20th century to include the tuba and Trombone in addition to the original compilation of horns and trumpets. The percussion section has greatly changed from its original arrangement. While the traditional orchestra contains only the timpani, the percussion section has flourished to include assorted drums, cymbals, triangle, and xylophone. Some 20th century orchestras may employ the use of keyboards. The only change to the string section has been the addition of the harp.
