Strings (music)

A string is a vibrating element used on many musical instruments, such as the violin, guitar, harp, and piano. They are long, flexible lengths of a material kept under tension so that they may freely vibrate. Strings are composed of a core and are optionally wound with other materials to increase their mass and thickness.
