Brass instruments range from large sousaphones to small bugles. Brass instruments have a certain authoritative characteristic synonymous with a marching band or school pep band. However, they can also be found in very intimate settings as well such as jazz quartets.

There are two main type of brass instruments, valved such as the trumpet and slide such as the trombone. The techniques used and the type of mouth piece are very similar among all brass instruments and therefore it is common to find brass players well versed in several brass instruments.
