The following is a list of musical instruments, categorized by section. Please add to List of musical instruments by Hornbostel-Sachs number also. This includes the variations of categories, but not the categories themselves. Example: There are eight types of flutes in the western concert flute category, which are all metal. Therefore there are eight instruments listed in that category but the western concert flute is not considered a musical instrument and is not listed in the count of instruments.
