Best Answer

A Brasswind instrument, or simply brass instrument, is an instrument made of brass that is played by buzzing your lips. Some examples of brass instruments are the Trumpet, French horn, Trombone, euphonium, baritone horn, and tuba. And although the Saxophone is made of brass, its technically a woodwind instrument because it is played by using a reed.
