There are several kinds of musical instruments. But the brass instruments are my favourite. Brass instruments are very difficult to play. We need to blow hard to make it produce music. Trumpet, Trombone, Saxophone and Tuba are some examples of brass instruments. I discovered these instruments when I started listening to the song What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong. My favourite brass instrument is Saxophone. Brass instruments are usually used in jazz music. Jazz music started Late 19th century, New Orleans, U.S. Jazz is mostly played in African- American communities of New Orleans, Louisiana, United States, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.Today, jazz music is popular worldwide. It has also become popular in nepali music. The most famous Nepali artist who uses jazz music is Bipul Chettri. He is one of my favourite musicians. There are unique traditional musical instruments in Nepal like: Madal, Sarangi, Murchunga, Damphu, etc. We have to preserve and promote them. We should be proud of our culture.
