us to your next activity called Jigsaw.

ACTIVITY 4. JIGSAW

The class will be divided into 6 groups which we call their “home group”.
Each member will be labeled as “expert” of a particular topic among the six
different topics. Now that we have obtained our group and assigned task,
experts of the same topic will now meet and discuss within 5 minutes
pertinent details and information supporting your field of expertise guided by
the handout given by your teacher.

When the time is up, you will return to your home group and share to them
the knowledge you have acquired from your expert group complete the table

Tr iviA
You have learned that instruments can be classified in a generic manner
using the Hornbostel-Sachs system. It is known to be the oldest form of
classification of instruments founded by Erich Moritz von Hornbostel and Curt
Sachs. This method of classifying instruments can be applied on all
instruments.

Hornbostel-Sachs System of Instrument Classification


CLASSIFICATION DESCRIPTION
AEROPHONE - produces sound by means of an air blown into
the mouthpiece
CHORDOPHONE - produces sound by means of the string
attached to the body of the instrument.
MEMBRANOPHONE - produces sound by means of the skin attached
into a membrane or body of the
instrument.
IDIOPHONE - produces sound by means of the body itself of
the musical instrument.
