  • Reed Instruments About Reeds
    Reed Instruments About Reeds A reed is a thin elastic strip of cane fixed at one end and free at the other. It is set into vibration by moving air. Reeds are the sound generators in the instruments described below. Cane reeds are built as either double or single reeds. A double reed consists of two pieces of cane carved and bound into a hollow, round shape at one end and flattened out and shaved thin at the other. The two pieces are tied together to form an channel. The single reed is a piece of cane shaved at one end and fastened at the other to a mouthpiece. Single Reed Instruments Clarinet: A family of single reed instruments with mainly a cylindrical bore. They are made of grenadilla (African blackwood) or ebonite, plastic, and metal. Clarinets are transposing instruments* and come in different keys. The most common ones used in orchestras are the clarinet in A and the clarinet in Bb. When a part calls for a clarinet in A, the player may either double -i.e. play the clarinet in A, or play the clarinet in Bb and transpose* the part as he plays. During the time of Beethoven, the clarinet in C was also in use and players were expected to be able to play all three instruments when required. All clarinets are notated in the treble clef and have approximately the same written range: E below middle C to c´´´´ (C five ledger lines above the staff). Bass Clarinet: A member of the clarinet family made of wood, which sounds an octave lower than the Clarinet in Bb.

    Week 7 Arranging Project: Guidelines and Rubric Real-World Application: Your uncle is getting married and, having learned that you are now a music student, decides that you should arrange his favorite song (Billy Joel’s “Piano Man”) for his church string quartet. How do we go about the process of arranging a pop song for a classical ensemble? I. Dates and Times POD meetings: Monday 10/1–Thursday 10/4 (4 days), 8:00–8:50, location of your choice Presentation: Friday 10/5, 8:00–8:50: room 238 (21616), room 123 (21613) II. Project Description. Brief Description: As a POD, choose a pop song,1 transcribe it, then arrange it for an ensemble of your choosing. Play your arrangement on Friday, and talk about why you made the choices you did. Step-by-Step instructions: 1. Bring in a song. Each person of the POD comes in first thing Monday morning with an idea of a song they’d like to arrange. Be able to play these for each other, and convince your POD why they should choose yours. Decide among your POD which of the four pieces to work on (suggested completion=Monday). 2. Working together,2 transcribe the song. See below for a list of the four functional layers of most pieces of music. At minimum, you must transcribe your song’s a) the primary melodic layer and b) the functional bass layer. You must also transcribe the harmonic filler layer using your choice of: c) chord symbols,3 roman numerals, or figured bass; or d) the actual instrument parts.

  • Rāga Recognition Based on Pitch Distribution Methods
    Rāga Recognition based on Pitch Distribution Methods Gopala K. Koduria, Sankalp Gulatia, Preeti Raob, Xavier Serraa aMusic Technology Group, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain. bDepartment of Electrical Engg., Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai, India. Abstract Rāga forms the melodic framework for most of the music of the Indian subcontinent. us automatic rāga recognition is a fundamental step in the computational modeling of the Indian art-music traditions. In this work, we investigate the properties of rāga and the natural processes by which people identify it. We bring together and discuss the previous computational approaches to rāga recognition correlating them with human techniques, in both Karṇāṭak (south Indian) and Hindustānī (north Indian) music traditions. e approaches which are based on first-order pitch distributions are further evaluated on a large com- prehensive dataset to understand their merits and limitations. We outline the possible short and mid-term future directions in this line of work. Keywords: Indian art music, Rāga recognition, Pitch-distribution analysis 1. Introduction ere are two prominent art-music traditions in the Indian subcontinent: Karṇāṭak in the Indian peninsular and Hindustānī in north India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Both are orally transmied from one generation to another, and are heterophonic in nature (Viswanathan & Allen (2004)). Rāga and tāla are their fundamental melodic and rhythmic frameworks respectively. However, there are ample differ- ences between the two traditions in their conceptualization (See (Narmada (2001)) for a comparative study of rāgas). ere is an abundance of musicological resources that thoroughly discuss the melodic and rhythmic concepts (Viswanathan & Allen (2004); Clayton (2000); Sambamoorthy (1998); Bagchee (1998)).

  • Pitch Bending and Glissandi on the Clarinet: Roles of the Vocal Tract and Partial Tone Hole Closure
    Pitch bending and glissandi on the clarinet: Roles of the vocal tract and partial tone hole closure ͒ Jer-Ming Chen,a John Smith, and Joe Wolfe School of Physics, The University of New South Wales, Sydney, New South Wales 2052, Australia ͑Received 9 March 2009; revised 15 June 2009; accepted 17 June 2009͒ Clarinettists combine non-standard fingerings with particular vocal tract configurations to achieve pitch bending, i.e., sounding pitches that can deviate substantially from those of standard fingerings. Impedance spectra were measured in the mouth of expert clarinettists while they played normally and during pitch bending, using a measurement head incorporated within a functioning clarinet mouthpiece. These were compared with the input impedance spectra of the clarinet for the fingerings used. Partially uncovering a tone hole by sliding a finger raises the frequency of clarinet impedance peaks, thereby allowing smooth increases in sounding pitch over some of the range. To bend notes in the second register and higher, however, clarinettists produce vocal tract resonances whose impedance maxima have magnitudes comparable with those of the bore resonance, which then may influence or determine the sounding frequency. It is much easier to bend notes down than up because of the phase relations of the bore and tract resonances, and the compliance of the reed. Expert clarinettists performed the glissando opening of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue. Here, players coordinate the two effects: They slide their fingers gradually over open tone holes, while simultaneously adjusting a strong vocal tract resonance to the desired pitch. © 2009 Acoustical Society of America. ͓DOI: 10.1121/1.3177269͔ PACS number͑s͒: 43.75.Pq, 43.75.St ͓NHF͔ Pages: 1511–1520 I.

  • Antolini, Retta Maniera Di Scivere Per Il Clarinetto (1813)
    Francesco Antolini La Retta Maniera di Scrivere per il Clarinetto (The Right Way to Write for the Clarinet) Milan (1813) Translated by Sion M. Honea 1 Translator’s Preface Antolini’s book is an interesting precursor to what would become the standard approach to the treatment of orchestration in the form of the treatises by Georg Kastner, Traité Général d’Instrumentation (1837) and Hector Berlioz Grand Traité d’Instrumentation et d’Orchestration (1843). What makes it interesting is not that it is nearly exclusively devoted to the issues of only one instrument, which was more nearly the earlier norm, but that it represents a time when the evolution of instruments of all types was happening so rapidly and with so many innovations, even so, in regard to physical development of the clarinet Antolini is conservative, advocating the five-key instrument and viewing even the six-key one skeptically. Rather, what makes Antolini’s book particularly interesting is that it is so revealing of a liminal period in which writing for these rapidly developing instruments was still for most composers so mysterious a practice and when the demand for expanded harmonic potential was accelerating. The author does give practical information about range and particular difficulties, especially those associated with different keys for an instrument only just emerging from its diatonic forebears, and for which he finds it only natural to give parallel but separate “diatonic” and “chromatic” fingering charts. The bulk of his treatment, however, centers on the mere technique of writing for the clarinet, of how to figure out the pitch level and key for the written parts of the transposing instrument, a term to which Antolini objects; indeed, it is only this preoccupation with transposition that justifies the inclusion of a section in the appendix on the horn and trumpet.

  • Transposing Instruments
    3.5 Transposing Instruments 3.5.1 Introduction What is a transposing instrument? Every instrument has a range of notes it can play. These notes donʹt always fit nice and neat on the treble clef. If we didnʹt do something about it we might end up trying to read the music on a bunch of ledger lines above or below the staff. So, by using this system of notation we can get as many notes as possible on the staff where they are easy to read. Also, if you play an instrument like a sax that comes in different sizes, itʹs nice to learn to read just once and not have to read differently for each size saxophone you pick up. If you learn the fingering for one size of sax and then use that same fingering for a different sized instrument - guess what - the note is different because the instrument is a different physical size. 3.5.2 Guitar and Banjo Are Transposing Instruments Believe it or not, the guitar and the banjo are transposing instruments! When we play the guitar or the banjo, we are not actually playing the notes as written. You may say, ʺYou gottaʹ be kidding me. When I see an ʹAʹ on the staff I play an ʹAʹ, so how can you say Iʹm not playing the note as written?ʺ The simple answer is that we are playing an octave lower than what is written. For guitar and banjo we are pretty lucky. The note names are still the same, but we are playing an octave lower than what is written.

  • The Microtones of Bharata's Natyashastra
    The Microtones of Bharata’s Natyashastra John Stephens N about 200 CE, Bharata and Dattila penned closely related Sanskrit treatises on music in I the Natyashastra and Dattilam, respectively (Ghosh 1951, lxv). Inside, they outline the essential intervals and scales of Gandharva music, a precursor to the Hindustani and Carnatic traditions. Their texts are the first known documents from south Asia that attempt to systematically describe a theory of intonation for musical instruments. At the core of their tonal structure is a series of twenty-two microtones, known as sruti-s.1 The precise musical definition of the twenty-two sruti-s has been a topic of debate over the ages. In part, this is because Bharata does not explain his system in acoustically verifiable terms, a hurdle that all interpretations of his text ultimately confront. Some authors, such as Nazir Ali Jairazbhoy and Emmie te Nijenhuis, suggest that Bharata believed the sruti-s were even (twenty-two tone equal temperament, or 22-TET), though they were not in practice (Jairazbhoy 1975, 44; Nijenhuis 1974, 14–16). Jairazbhoy concludes that it is impossible to determine the exact nature of certain intervals in Bharata’s system, such as major thirds. Nijenhuis (1974, 16–19) takes a different approach, suggesting that the ancient scales were constructed using interval ratios 7:4 and 11:10, so as to closely approximate the neutral seconds and quarter tones produced by 22-TET. Prabhakar R. Bhandarkar (1912, 257-58) argues that Bharata’s 22-TET system was approximate and still implied the use of 3:2 perfect fifths and 5:4 major thirds.
