There are a number of exciting projects lined up this year that I'm thrilled to mention. For the first time the Early Brass Festival will not be at Amherst but will be at the campus of the Indiana University School of Music in Bloomington, IN. We hope to continue to have Amherst as our home base but thought that it would be a healthy step to present the EBF at different locations from time to time. This year the EBF # 13 and the Historic Brass Society will be the subject of a film series on the early music movement and will be filmed by the BBC. I look forward to seeing many of you there and since we are going to be filmed, please remember to wear your snazziest T-shirts and sandals! ! Now that we have firmly established an important forum with the HBS Journal, HBS Newsletter and our new book series, BUCINA, (the second in the series, the Proceedings of the 1995 HBS Symposium is due soon), we are working hard to span bridges to other areas in the music world. Some of those groups have, unfortunately, been quite unaware of the great work being done in the brass field. Having presented several successful events in cooperation with the American Musicological Society and Galpin Society, the HBS will present a special Early Brass Study Session at the upcoming International Musicological Society 16th Annual Congress (Aug. 19th) in London. We took advantage of this rare opportunity to also present a day-long Colloquium on the day before the IMS starts (Aug. 13th). Both events will have the participation of many leading scholars and performers and look to be quite important. The HBS will also participate in a forum sponsored by EMA at the Boston Early Music Festival. The HBS is a not-for-profit organization and contributions are tax-deductible, very much needed, and very much appreciated. Your support is, of course, needed for us to continue the good work we have done to date. Please consider sending in a contribution along with your annual membership dues. The new-comers might not realize, but the HBS is a great labor of love for many who work long and hard for free. My thanks, as always, to the members of the Board of Directors, Editorial Board, and Board of Advisors.

  • Brass Teacherõs Guide
    Teacher’s Guide Brass ® by Robert W.Getchell, Ph. D. Foreword This manual includes only the information most pertinent to the techniques of teaching and playing the instruments of the brass family. Its principal objective is to be of practical help to the instrumental teacher whose major instrument is not brass. In addition, the contents have purposely been arranged to make the manual serve as a basic text for brass technique courses at the college level. The manual should also help the brass player to understand the technical possibilities and limitations of his instrument. But since it does not pretend to be an exhaustive study, it should be supplemented in this last purpose by additional explanation from the instructor or additional reading by the student. General Characteristics of all Brass Instruments Of the many wind instruments, those comprising the brass family are perhaps the most closely interrelated as regards principles of tone production, embouchure, and acoustical characteristics. A discussion of the characteristics common to all brass instruments should be helpful in clarifying certain points concerning the individual instruments of the brass family to be discussed later. TONE PRODUCTION. The principle of tone production in brass instruments is the lip-reed principle, peculiar to instruments of the brass family, and characterized by the vibration of the lip or lips which sets the sound waves in motion. One might describe the lip or lips as the generator, the tubing of the instrument as the resonator, and the bell of the instrument as the amplifier. EMBOUCHURE. It is imperative that prospective brass players be carefully selected, as perhaps the most important measure of success or failure in a brass player, musicianship notwithstanding, is the degree of flexibility and muscular texture in his lips.

  • Hey There Ladies! Time to Move on from Composers to Instruments
    Hey there ladies! Time to move on from composers to instruments… after all… someone had to play the music that those guys wrote! So first you will be introduced to the four families and their instruments, then the orchestra and its layout. There are some worksheets you must complete to help you familiarise yourself with this work. No need to submit. We will mark once back at school. There are also plenty of awesome videos on YouTube where they show you how these instruments are made. So if you can (not compulsory!) go check it out! Type in: How ……. (instrument) is made Missing you lots! Stay healthy and safe! Mrs. fin Instrument families All instruments are divided into four different categories, based on: String Brass Instruments Instruments Woodwind Percussion Instruments Instruments Find the Instrument instruments Wordsearch listed below the wordsearch Flute Harmonica Recorder Oboe Trombone Guitar Viola Cornet Saxophone Bazooka Accordian Trumpet Panpipe Clarinet Bagpipe Zither Piccalo Ocarina Fiddle Snare The smaller the instrument, the Brass higher it plays. Instruments The bigger the instrument the lower it plays. A brass instrument is a musical instrument that you play by vibrating your lips into a mouthpiece (that is placed against your mouth) to pro- duce high or low notes (this is called buzzing). No sound will come out if you just blow air through it! Interestingly, it does not matter whether the instrument are made of brass, as long as it works the way explained above. Brass instruments can be gold, rose gold or silver in colour.

  • Baryton Trios, Vol. 2
    Franz Josef Haydn Baryton trios Arranged for two clarinets and bassoon by Ray Jackendoff SCORE Volume 2 Trio 101 in Bb Trio 77 in F Trio 106 in C Franz Josef Haydn ! Baryton trios The baryton was a variation on the viola da gamba, with seven bowed strings and ten sympathetic strings. Haydn’s employer, Prince Nikolaus von Esterházy, played this instrument, and so it fell to Haydn to compose for it. Between 1761 and 1775 he wrote 126 trios for the unusual combination of baryton, viola, and cello, as well as other solo and ensemble works for baryton. As might be expected, many are rather routine. But some are quite striking, and reflect developments going on in Haydn’s composition for more customary ensembles such as the symphony and the string quartet. The six trios selected here are a sampling of the more !interesting among the trios. The trios are typically in three movements. The first movement is often slow or moderate in tempo; the other two movements are usually a fast movement and a minuet in one order or the other. Trio 96 is one of the few in a minor key; Trio 101 is unusual in having a fugal finale, !along the lines of the contemporaneous Op. 20 string quartets. In arranging these trios for two clarinets and bassoon, I have transposed all but Trio 96 down a whole step from the original key. I have added dynamics and articulations that have worked well in performance. We have found that the minuets, especially those that serve as final movements, !work better if repeats are taken in the da capo.

  • A Selection of Contemporary Fanfares for Multiple Trumpets Demonstrating Evolutionary Processes in the Fanfare Form
    MODERN FORMS OF AN ANCIENT ART: A SELECTION OF CONTEMPORARY FANFARES FOR MULTIPLE TRUMPETS DEMONSTRATING EVOLUTIONARY PROCESSES IN THE FANFARE FORM Paul J. Florek, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2015 APPROVED: Keith Johnson, Major Professor Eugene Corporon, Committee Member John Holt, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of Instrumental Studies Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies in Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Costas Tsatsoulis, Interim Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Florek, Paul J. Modern Forms of an Ancient Art: A Selection of Contemporary Fanfares for Multiple Trumpets Demonstrating Evolutionary Processes in the Fanfare Form. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2015, 73 pp., 1 table, 26 figures, references, 96 titles. The pieces discussed throughout this dissertation provide evidence of the evolution of the fanfare and the ability of the fanfare, as a form, to accept modern compositional techniques. While Britten’s Fanfare for St. Edmundsbury maintains the harmonic series, it does so by choice rather than by the necessity in earlier music played by the baroque trumpet. Stravinsky’s Fanfare from Agon applies set theory, modal harmonies, and open chords to blend modern techniques with medieval sounds. Satie’s Sonnerie makes use of counterpoint and a rather unusual, new characteristic for fanfares, soft dynamics. Ginastera’s Fanfare for Four Trumpets in C utilizes atonality and jazz harmonies while Stravinsky’s Fanfare for a New Theatre strictly coheres to twelve-tone serialism. McTee’s Fanfare for Trumpets applies half-step dissonance and ostinato patterns while Tower’s Fanfare for the Uncommon Woman demonstrates a multi-section work with chromaticism and tritones.
