Ted: Ted Ed: How Brass Instruments Work

Curated by ACT

What gives the trumpet its clarion ring and the tuba its gut shaking oompah-pah? And what makes the trombone so jazzy? Al Cannon shows how these answers lie not in the brass the instruments are made of, but in the journey that air takes from the musician's lungs to the instrument's bell. [4:11]
