Pihala predstavljajo svojstveno družino glasbil, ki sodijo med tako imenovane aerofone – torej glasbila, pri katerih izvajamo glasbo s pomočjo zraka. Pihala lahko predstavljajo svoj glasbeni sestav ali pa so del večjega orkestra.

Njihove družine so piščali, flavte, oboe, klarineti, saksofoni in fagoti, pa tudi glasbila, kot so npr. dude, taragav, hekelfon, šakukači ali didžeridu. Vse to so pihala in razumljivo je, da imamo mnogo odličnih izvajalcev, ki predstavljajo vrh glasbenega ustvarjanja v svetu pihal. Med njimi so flavtisti: James Galway, Karin Leitner, Nestor Torres in Viviana Guzman; oboisti: Heinz Holliger, Eugene Izotov, Liang Wang, Katherine Needleman in Elaine Douvas; klarinetisti: Pete Fountain, Benny Goodman, George Gershwin, Artie Shaw, Sharon Kam in Sabine Meyer; saksofonisti: John Coltraine, Michael Brecker, Stan Getz, John Gilmore in Kenny G ter fagotisti Klaus Thunemann, Judith LeClair, Karen Geoghegan, Matthias Racz in Bernard Garfield. Vsekakor mnogo zanimivih virtuozov in virtuozinj, ki delajo svet pihal izredno zanimiv.
