Best Answer

Most likely the brass section is the loudest, or rather most brilliant sounding family of the orchestra. However, it is up to the composers wishes who will be loudest. After that the conductor helps shape the music and determines who needs to be louder or softer. The woodwind and brass instruments often sound louder because of the different colors they bring to the sound of the orchestra.
