The brass section of the orchestra is made up of the French horn, the tuba, the Trumpet or cornet, the tenor horn, and the Trombone. The brass section of the orchestra gives it its bright and majestic sound. But it can also give a mysterious sound when it plays quietly.
All brass instruments are made of long pieces of coiled tubes or brass or other metals. Their sound comes from the musician's lips as they make a buzzing noise. As air flows through the tubing it vibrates and makes a crisp, bright, vibrant sound. The sound coming out of a brass instrument can be changed when the player changes his lip tension.The greater he makes the tension the higher the sound for that instrument. All brass instruments have mouthpieces. The mouthpiece is shaped like a cone, a cup, or a funnel depending on the instrument.
