Excerpt from The Orchestra The origin of the orchestra is not clearly defined from the origin of choral music. The voice, being the perfect instrument created by nature, was the first element of musical expression of which man availed himself and which, from the period of the single voice song to that of the great art of the polyphonists, has dominated both sacred and secular music.

Then we will proceed to introduce to the reader every individual of the great families of sounding pipes, strings and membranes, giving to each a pedigree, and disclosing the story of all as far as may be of real interest to the occasional concert-goer.
