A A DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE OF THE Musical Instruments RECENTLY EXHIBITED AT THE ROYAL MILITARY EXHIBITION, LONDON, 1890. Issued under the orders of COLONEL SUA IV-HELLIER, Commandant Royal Military School of Music; and compiled by CAPTAIN C. R. DA Y, Oxfordshire Light Infantry. EYRE & SPOTTISWOODE, LONDON—EAST HARDING STREET, FETTER LANE, E.C. 1891. PREFACE. WHEN the Royal Military Exhibition of last year was first promoted, I was requested by those in authority to take entire charge of the musical arrangements, and to provide for the performance of varied programmes of popular music, in the grounds of the Exhibition, during the season. As this seemed to me to offer an opportunity, probably unique, for enabling the public to judge of the capabilities of our best military bands, I thought that by introducing music of a higher class into the programmes, and by arranging for a constant succession of different military bands, brought from all parts of the United Kingdom, instead of employing some half dozen bands only, amusement for the frequenters of the Exhibition would be more amply provided for. And, in addition to this, musical critics would have the opportunity of judging of the present state of military music generally, of the requirements of a military bandmaster and of a military musician, and also of the relative merits and demerits of our present system. Accordingly, I suggested this plan, which met with the entire approval of H.R.H. the Commander-in- Chief, who issued the necessary orders to enable me to carry it out. The Exhibition remained open some five months. During these five months no less than 74 different military bands of all branches of the Service were engaged, most of these remaining in London for a week. By these means it has been possible to form a very fair idea as to the general state of military music in this country, and to gain a large amount of material knowledge as to the present system, which could not have been otherwise obtained. a 3 vi PREFACE. As the development of military music is, like everything else in the army, rapidly progressing, it is becoming more than ever absolutely necessary that military musicians should be in accord and " touch " with the musical profession, and should have some real interest as regards what is occurring in the musical world ; and unless this is so, we may look in vain for any real improvement. That the career of a military musician should offer advantages in a professional point of view must be fully recognised. And that the curriculum at Kneller Hall, as re-constituted, offers a sound musical educa- tion, and one which may, in its special way, be brought to compare favourably with that offered by the Royal Academy of Music, or Royal College of Music, is a point which time alone can show ; and that time will show proof of this I venture to believe. As there is in England, unfortunately, no Conservatoire as comprehensive as that of Paris, and no Museum of Musical Instruments in which students can see the improvements and various experimental stages through which Musical Instru- ments have passed, the opportunity offered last year by the Exhibition appeared most appropriate for assembling a large collection. And as the military musician has chiefly to deal with Wind Instruments, which in their present state are virtually the growth of the present century, I proposed that the collection should be principally one of Wind Instruments. The matter was fully discussed at a meeting held at the Royal Academy of Music, at which representatives of that excellent society, the Wind Instrument Chamber Music Society, and various leading musicians were present. It was accordingly decided that the aim of the collection should be to set forth the gradual history and development of Wind Instruments from the earliest times to the most recent improve- ments of the day ; a point which appears of the greatest PREFACE. vii importance, and cannot be overrated. Thanks to the cor- dial co-operation of Dr. Mackenzie, Principal of the Royal Academy of Music, of M. Gevaert and M. Mahillon, of the Brussels Conservatoire, and various other gentlemen distin- guished in the musical world, the collection became a fait accompli, and was thrown open to the public in June last. As there is no text book in English in which the theory and construction of Wind Instruments is treated of, it seemed that a technical Catalogue designed upon the lines of that now issued would be a book of interest, and would also supply a want felt generally among students, too many of whom are, unfortunately, ignorant of anything further than the mere fingering of their instruments. Unfortunately, the death of Mr. Charles Cousins, the Director of Music at Kneller Hall, which occurred in May last, caused my time to be occupied almost entirely with the affairs of the School of Music, much extra work falling of necessity upon my shoulders. I was therefore unable to devote as much time as I could have wished to the prepara- tion of this Catalogue, and was compelled to place the matter, subject to my supervision, in the hands of Captain C. R. Day, an officer whose services had, on account of his musical knowledge, been placed, specially, at my disposal by H.R.H. the Commander-in-Chief, and whose skill and intelli- gence more than realised my most sanguine expectations. Certain considerations, over which I had no control, pre- vented the publication of this Catalogue before ; but as they are now happily removed, the work is issued with the hope that it may prove of interest and permanent value. To those gentlemen, and to those firms of Musical Instru- ment makers, who have so generously assisted us in carrying out this work, I desire to convey my fullest thanks, both for their disinterested help, and for the kindness and courtesy viii PREFACE. with which they have met us upon all occasions. The names of these gentlemen, and the nature of their assistance, are more fully explained in a note of Captain Day's, which I requested him to draw up, and which I therefore judge better to give at length below. T. B. Shaw-Hellier, • Colonel, Commandant, Royal Military School of Music. NOTE. — In the compilation of this Catalogue much valuable assistance has been received from various gentlemen, many of whom, at considerable personal inconvenience, unselfishly gave up valuable time and devoted themselves to minute examination of the instru- ments described in the following pages. I wish especially to thank Mr. Richard Rockstro, who very kindly undertook the whole ol Section II., relating to Flutes, and who not only furnished the necessary details and "copy," but contributed the admirable prefatory Essay to that Section, revising and seeing all through the press. Especial thanks are also due to the Rev. F. W. Galpin, F.L.S., for his energy and labour in connection with Sections I. and IX. The details and measurements of almost all the instruments described in these Sections were furnished by him, and his varied and practical knowledge has been of the greatest value. Of the assistance and co-operation of Mr. D. J. Blaikley, the able manager of Messrs. Boosey and Co's manufactory, it would be impossible to speak too highly. His knowledge of acoustics and his unique practical experience he generously placed at my disposal, and the value of his help, not in one Section alone but throughout the work, cannot be overrated. The learned and exhaustive Essay upon Musical Pitch, a subject of ever-increasing importance, and printed in the Appendix, is from Mr. Blaikley's pen, and has been written by him especially for this work. PREFACE. ix Valuable assistance has been rendered by M. Victor Mahillon, the Conservateicr dn Musee of the Brussels Conservatoire, and the kind- ness of this gentleman in coming over, especially, from Brussels was very great. Thanks are also due to Mr. Henry Carte for much important information ; and to Mr. George Case, whose knowledge in connection with instruments of the Trombone family is well known. Thanks are due to Messrs. Besson and Co. for their courtesy in affording facilities for the examination of various important documents and foreign patent specifications. Acknowledgment is due also to Mr. Kohler, to Mr. Henry Potter, to Mr. George Potter, to Mr. Glen, and to various others too numerous to mention individually. In conclusion, I must thank Mr. A. J. Hipkins, F.S.A., for the sound criticism and judicious advice so freely given by him upon all occasions, and for his kind help and experience, which has been of the most material assistance. C. R. Day, Captain, Oxfordshire Light Infantry. CONTENTS. SECTION TAGE - I. Flutes : («) Flutes-a-bec - i II. Flutes: (P) Flutes traversieres - 23 III. Bagpipes - - - - - 53 IV.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy o f a document sent to us for microHlming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify m " '<ings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “ target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)” . I f it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting througli an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyriglited materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part o f the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin film ing at the upper le ft hand comer o f a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections w ith small overlaps. I f necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • El Rocío: a Case Study of Music and Ritual in Andalucía
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: EL ROCÍO: A CASE STUDY OF MUSIC AND RITUAL IN ANDALUCÍA W. Gerard Poole, Ph.D., 2007 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Carolina Robertson, Department of Ethnomusicology Music is central to the processional pilgrimage of El Rocío, which attracts hundreds of thousands of pilgrims to Andalusia, Spain, late each spring. The pilgrimage affords a unique view, in microcosm, of the relationships between music and ritual from both ritual-studies and ethnomusicological perspectives. Based on extensive fieldwork and other research, this dissertation explores the nexus of the Catholic ritual system in Andalusia, flamenco, and the specific music of El Rocío: the Sevillanas Rocieras. That nexus becomes clear through exploration of three particular features of the pilgrimage: (1) the devotional processions that generate a single, focused, collective emotion; (2) the Andalusian musical form called the palo; and (3) the informal musical gatherings called juergas, which take place nightly along the route. Analysis of structural and morphological relationships between ritual, music, and emotion yields surprising realizations about how these three elements come together as embodied aesthetics within a communitas to generate popular culture. Another important finding of this work is the necessity of placing, at the center of the inquiry, the religious experience—including the curious Andalusian phenomenon of the “chaotic” emotional procession and its role within the overall pilgrimage and ritual system. The dissertation concludes with two theoretical positions. The first addresses the process of “emotional structuring” and its role within the musical rituals of El Rocío and, by extension, Andalusia. The second advances a theory of ritual relations with potential application to ritual systems beyond Andalusia.

  • Tracing Seven Hundred Years of Organ Registration 1300 – Present ---SCW (2010)
    Tracing Seven Hundred Years of Organ Registration 1300 – Present ---SCW (2010) . portions used for ALCM Conference workshop, “This, That, Neither, or Both,” June 2012, Bethlehem, PA, So, this all started when a student asked me questions about Spanish music about which I had not a clue . just think what would happen if they asked me about something really complicated!! _________________ 12 th century Theophilus, a monk, documented an organ that contained an ensemble of pipes speaking in octaves and fifths known as a Blockwerk , literally a ‘block of sound’ from which individual ranks could not be separated. 14 th and 15 th centuries – Late Medieval Organs Multiple manuals and split-chest systems enabled separating the Principal ranks from the higher Mixture sounds. By the 14 th century, there were pedals, fully chromatic keyboards, and tripartite façade arrangements accommodating large ‘bourdon’ or ‘tenor’ pipes. By the 2 nd half of the 14 th century, there was the addition of secondary manual and pedals on separate actions and wind chests. For organs built c. 1350-1400 (which can be translated to modern organs): >simple organ would be a Blockwerk of Mixtures, probably based on 4-foot pitch >double organ would add an octave lower at 8-foot pitch >RH would probably feature a decorative treble voice on the Blockwerk sound, while the LH on the ten lowest keys would sound the tenor on sustained Principals >the organ could be played so that only the ten tenor keys of the main manual were doubled an octave lower >4-foot Principal stops on a separate manual is an option >8-foot plenum for the tenor on one keyboard with other voices on the 4’ plenum Organ built in 1361, renovated in 1498, described by Praetorius: >two upper manuals were called Diskant with 22-note chromatic compass >third manual or Bassklavier had 12 keys from B to b >pedal had the same one-octave compass The Principal chorus of inseparable registers is the most heavily documented type of late- medieval organ.

  • Oboe in Oxford Music Online
    14.3.2011 OboeinOxfordMusicOnline Oxford Music Online Grove Music Online Oboe article url: http://www.oxfordmusiconline.com:80/subscriber/article/grove/music/40450 Oboe (Fr. hautbois ; Ger. Oboe ; It. oboe ). Generic term in the system of Hornbostel and Sachs for an aerophone with a double (concussion) reed (for detailed classification see AEROPHONE ). The name is taken from that of the principal treble double-reed instrument of Western art music (see §II below). I. General 1. Oboes. The AULOS of ancient Greece may sometimes have had a double reed, and some kind of reed aerophone was known in North Africa in pre-Islamic times. Instruments of the SURNĀY type became established with the spread of the Arab empire around the end of the first millennium CE; they were possibly a synthesis of types from Iran, Mesopotamia, Syria and Asia Minor. From there the instrument, then used in a military role, spread into conquered areas and areas of influence: to India, and later, under the Ottoman empire, to Europe (around the time of the fifth crusade, 1217–21; there may already have been bagpipes with double reeds there) and further into Asia (to China in the 14th century). As the instrument spread, it came to be made of local materials and fashioned according to local preferences in usage, shape and decoration: the ŚAHNĀĪ of north India has a flared brass bell; the SARUNAI of Sumatra has a palm leaf reed and a bell of wood or buffalo horn; the ALGAITA of West Africa is covered with leather and has four or five finger-holes.

  • Book 2 of the Structured Learning Guide of the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association
    SECOND EDITION 1993 PREFACE It is with very real pleasure that I introduce Book 2 of the Structured learning Guide of The Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association. The growing international popularity of Book 1 in the series is positive proof of the acceptance of the clear concise teaching methods being used in the education programme now introduced. Pipe band enthusiasts all over the world are due a debt of gratitude to the members of the team of diligent, talented personnel who have created and presented this comprehensive and imaginative learning aid. This debt will be amply repaid by the conscientious use of Books 1 and 2 and by the subsequent attainment of a higher standard of performance of Pipe Band Music. E. Sturgeon PRESIDENT - 1 INTRODUCTION The Music Board of the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association is delighted to present Book 2 in the Structured Learning series which covers the revised curriculum of the Intermediate Certificate course. We believe that this second publication provides a well balanced and coherent framework of learning material against which students can further develop their musical competence in piping and drumming. The successful presentation format which was established in Book 1 has been continued and built upon to ensure continuity of the learning process. It also maintains the capability of the material for use in a distance learning mode where the student has limited or perhaps no access to formal instruction. A key objective of the Music Board is to offer musical education of the highest quality and to support this by the provision of appropriate learning resource material which will be available to the membership of the Association and to the many Affiliated Associations throughout the World.
