octet

An ensemble of any eight instruments, or the music written for such a group. The most common combination of instruments is the string octet for four violins, two violas, and two cellos, as in Mendelssohn's String Octet in E♭ (1830). Stravinsky wrote an octet in 1923 for a wind ensemble. A mixture of strings and winds is also possible, as in Schubert's Octet in F (1824), scored for two violins, viola, cello, double bass, clarinet, bassoon, and horn.
