Answer: Strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion. Strings are instruments like the violin, viola, and cello. Examples of woodwind instruments are the clarinet, flute, piccolo, and oboe. The brass section is made up of instruments like the trumpet, tuba, and trombone. Lastly, percussion is the section of drums, xylophone, and cymbals.

I gotchu. Both of my parents were professional muscicians, and my father still plays the trumpet for a living. lol
