  • Beethoven Op. 131 Manuscript Markings NK 20170701.Pages
    A paper by Nicholas Kitchen about manuscript markings in Beethoven in general and in particular about their use in Op. 131, expanded from a paper presented for the Boston University Beethoven Institute in April 2017 I am honored to share with you today some of the exciting surprises that have come from rehearsing and performing directly from pdf files of Beethoven's manuscripts. The Beethoven editions I first encountered (at least for quartets) were the Joachim- Moser editions, which I now see as lovingly mauled editorial efforts. Regardless of any editions, I heard beautiful performances of Beethoven's music, treasures in my memory that continually inspire my current endeavors to try to bring the beauty of his compositions to life. But the particular beauty of Beethoven quickly demands from us the realization that the details of our interface with the markings in his music DO matter a great deal, and that they mattered a great deal to Beethoven himself. Studying at Curtis, I witnessed the transition to Henle Urtext as the trusted source of learning about Beethoven. My single most inspiring class was one led by my teacher Szymon Goldberg, where all of his students had our Henle piano scores of all ten Beethoven Sonatas (we also consulted Joachim's solutions to certain issues) and all together we went through all ten sonatas multiple times, with all of us taking turns performing different Sonatas. Mr. Goldberg made vivid to us the concept that !1 of 92! Beethoven's markings were living instructions from one virtuoso performer to another, and he had a nice saying: "The composer wants the performance to succeed even MORE than you do".

  • Articulation from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Articulation From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Examples of Articulations: staccato, staccatissimo,martellato, marcato, tenuto. In music, articulation refers to the musical performance technique that affects the transition or continuity on a single note, or between multiple notes or sounds. Types of articulations There are many types of articulation, each with a different effect on how the note is played. In music notation articulation marks include the slur, phrase mark, staccato, staccatissimo, accent, sforzando, rinforzando, and legato. A different symbol, placed above or below the note (depending on its position on the staff), represents each articulation. Tenuto Hold the note in question its full length (or longer, with slight rubato), or play the note slightly louder. Marcato Indicates a short note, long chord, or medium passage to be played louder or more forcefully than surrounding music. Staccato Signifies a note of shortened duration Legato Indicates musical notes are to be played or sung smoothly and connected. Martelato Hammered or strongly marked Compound articulations[edit] Occasionally, articulations can be combined to create stylistically or technically correct sounds. For example, when staccato marks are combined with a slur, the result is portato, also known as articulated legato. Tenuto markings under a slur are called (for bowed strings) hook bows. This name is also less commonly applied to staccato or martellato (martelé) markings. Apagados (from the Spanish verb apagar, "to mute") refers to notes that are played dampened or "muted," without sustain. The term is written above or below the notes with a dotted or dashed line drawn to the end of the group of notes that are to be played dampened.

  • Glissando Harp Manual
    C A Glissando Harps Manual v 2.0 rev 2.0.0 - Nov. 12th, 2018 Welcome Thank you very much for purchasing Glissando Harps for Kontakt! We hope you’ll make the best out of these carefully crafted Virtual Instruments. A Few Words on the Sounds of Glissando Harps The two harps making up Glissando Harps, Concert and Orchestral, were sampled in two very different venues, with different instruments, players, microphone and preamp setups. This was done on purpose. To put in your hands two complementary instruments, allowing for the best sound to fit many different composing scenarios. For Concert Harp we chose a small live room. For this reason when we set up for the next chapter, Glissando Orchestral Harp, we chose a studio, Sotto Il Mare Recording Studios (near Verona in Italy), famous for their wonderful analog equipment and a resounding live room. This setup allowed us to capture more microphone perspectives than we had for Glissando Concert Harp. So, to sum up: Glissando Harps Glissando Concert Harp Small recording venue, best fit for intimate or in-your-face kind of parts; also good for characterization with additional reverbs and Efx. Three microphone channels: an AB stereo setup with a Schoeps CMC64 matched pair and a Mid-Side setup with Neumann M140 as mid and Royer R121 as side. Glissando Orchestral Harp Large recording venue, perfect when you need to position the harp in an orchestral scenario, both as accompanist and as a soloist. Eight microphone channels, combined in five “movie-city-named” nki instruments. An LCR (wide AB + central mono) with Schopes CMC64 and Soundelux U195, the mono Soundelux U195 by itself, another wide AB with ribbon AEA N22 matched pair.

    JEAN RICARDO MARQUES ORNAMENTOS Musicais SALVADOR 2014 1 SUMÁRIO 1. INTRODUÇÃO ...............................................................................................3 2. TIPOS DE ORNAMENTOS NA MÚSICA ERUDITA ......................................3 3. TIPOS DE ORNAMENTOS NA MÚSICA POPULAR ....................................8 4. CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS ..........................................................................12 REFERÊNCIAS BIBLIOGRÁFICAS ................................................................ 13 2 1. INTRODUÇÃO Este estudo trata dos ornamentos na música erudita, também chamados de “efeitos” na música popular. Em música, são chamados ornamentos os embelezamentos e decorações de uma melodia, expressos através de pequenas notas ou sinais especiais. A ornamentação fazia muito sentido nos séculos XIV até XVI devido ao amplo uso do Cravo. Este instrumento por sua vez, não segurava uma nota por tanto tempo quanto o Piano, deixando assim lacunas entre uma nota e outra ou o término de um tema e o início de um desenvolvimento/cadência. Desta forma os ornamentos tornaram-se amplamente utilizados neste período. Na musica Erudita, os ornamentos possuem características próprias sobre as notas que englobam e as notas que acrescentam. São eles o: Trinado (ou Trilo), Mordente, Grupetto (ou Gruppeto, Gruppetto, Grupeto), Appoggiatura (ou Apogiatura, Apojatura), Floreio, Portamento, Cadência (ou Cadenza), Arpeggio (ou Arpejo, Harpejo) e Glissando. Ornamentos na música popular consistem em extrair sonoridades e interpretações diferentes que incidem sobre determinado trecho musical, mediante a utilização de diversos sistemas de execução. Esses efeitos tem origem na guitarra elétrica e foram adaptados e usados nos baixos elétrico e são, em parte, aquilo que define a peculiaridade do músico. 2. TIPOS DE ORNAMENTOS NA MÚSICA ERUDITA Segue abaixo os ornamentos mais usados na música erudita: a) Trinado Esta representado por um tr colocado sempre acima da nota independente se ela tem a haste virada para cima ou para baixo.

When you compose a piece of music, you use the of music is a big pot elements of music to build it, just like a builder uses bricks to build a house. If of different spices. the piece of music is to sound right, then you have to use the elements of It’s a soup with all kinds of ingredients music correctly. in it.” - Abigail Washburn What are the Elements of Music? PITCH means the highness or lowness of the sound. Some pieces need high sounds and some need low, deep sounds. Some have sounds that are in the middle. Most pieces use a mixture of pitches. TEMPO means the fastness or slowness of the music. Sometimes this is called the speed or pace of the music. A piece might be at a moderate tempo, or even change its tempo part-way through. DYNAMICS means the loudness or softness of the music. Sometimes this is called the volume. Music often changes volume gradually, and goes from loud to soft or soft to loud. Questions to think about: 1. Think about your DURATION means the length of each sound. Some sounds or notes are long, favourite piece of some are short. Sometimes composers combine long sounds with short music – it could be a song or a piece of sounds to get a good effect. instrumental music. How have the TEXTURE – if all the instruments are playing at once, the texture is thick.

Documentation Bibliography………………………………………………………..29 3 Introduction My intent in creating this project was to provide composers of today with a new resource; a technical yet pragmatic guide to writing with extended techniques on the cello. The cello has a wondrously broad spectrum of sonic possibility, yet must be approached in a different way than other string instruments, owing to its construction, playing orientation, and physical mass. Throughout the history of the cello, many resources regarding the core technique of the cello have been published; this book makes no attempt to expand on those sources. Divers resources are also available regarding the cello’s role in orchestration; these books, however, revolve mostly around the use of the instrument as part of a sonically traditional sensibility. The techniques discussed in this book, rather, are the so-called “extended” techniques; those that are comparatively rare in music of the common practice, and usually not involved within the elemental skills of cello playing, save as fringe oddities or practice techniques.

  • Essay-Do You Hear Me.Pdf
    Do you hear me? Handbook for violin contemporary music notation by Dejana Sekulić Author’s Note: This might be a work with no end, as it is almost impossible to think of there could be an end of this research, and of this essay. Every new sign, sonority, color, timbre... experience in reading and playing becomes additional material. With (almost) each new piece, there will be new additions, especially to the segment “Notation: see me-hear me-make me”. It is, as well, very likely that new chapters will arise, both on left and right hand technique, as well as marks on other sonority and timbre remarks. This publication captures this research at this point in time, and should not be considered as the ultimate statement, but the base on which the future findings will be added on. Special thank you to Marc Danel and Bart Bouckaert. Table of contents: Introduction 07 Beautiful noise and sound of silence 11 Notation: see me-hear me-make me 15 ●Pitch 16 *Microtones alterations 17 *Highest (and lowest) pitch 18 *Indeterminate pitch 19 ●Special note-heads 20 ●Time/Rhythm 21 ●Left hand 21 *Muting, muffing and damping 23 *Chords and double stops 24 *Glissando 25 *Triller 26 *Harmonics, half harmonics and subharmonics 27 *Vibrato 28 ●Right hand 31 *Timbre 31 *Pizzicato 35 *Irregular bow directions 41 *Arpeggio tremolo 43 *Tailpiece 44 Percussive techniques 44 Helmut Lachenmann 47 ●Bridge hey 47 ●Bow technique dabbing with the 48 screw of the bow Be practical: 50 ●Arranging you score 50 ●Color coding 51 Bibliography 55 Scores 57 Introduction “Experimenting, that’s the only way to find out – by trying things.” “Nobody has enough technique, you could never have enough.
