I stopped my cart and saw that a shepherd was playing the dulcian: he was just a lad who, with his soft melody, won the evening’s heart with his music endeavour. Soon gathered around him a thousand friends: minstrels who came from one and another place. And they met in Granada, in colourful revelry, such excellent musicians that they managed in a few days, to folks’ delight, to make the town known not for its flowery Alhambra or its charming Albaycin, but for this courageous host of the double reed: what a great honour for Spain, what endless bliss! by Ventura Rico Translated by: Gerardo Rodríguez Salas Reprinted from the IDRS 2018 Annual Conference Program Book 5 GRANADA SPECIAL ISSUE 2018 Granada! From The President Dr Mark Gaydon 6 GRANADA SPECIAL ISSUE 2018 Dear Friends and Colleagues, What could one say about the IDRS 47th Annual Conference Granada, Spain? It could be summed up in one word: WOW! I felt lucky to be a part of the substantial ADRS delegation present for this Spanish-style celebration of all things double reed. From start to finish this was an outstanding and memorable event that undoubtably left an indelible impression on all those who attended and performed. The conference was unmistakably infused with Spanish exuberance and flair. From the sumptuous and gorgeous warmth of Granada itself to the generosity and hospitality Henry and Mark Gaydon of the city’s people, this was an experience that won’t soon be the audience was treated to a feast This was a personal highlight for forgotten. of double reed virtuosity with the many reasons, not the least of which was to simply participate as The opening evening concert City of Granada Orchestra backing an artist at this stunning event.

  • Instrument Descriptions
    RENAISSANCE INSTRUMENTS Shawm and Bagpipes The shawm is a member of a double reed tradition traceable back to ancient Egypt and prominent in many cultures (the Turkish zurna, Chinese so- na, Javanese sruni, Hindu shehnai). In Europe it was combined with brass instruments to form the principal ensemble of the wind band in the 15th and 16th centuries and gave rise in the 1660’s to the Baroque oboe. The reed of the shawm is manipulated directly by the player’s lips, allowing an extended range. The concept of inserting a reed into an airtight bag above a simple pipe is an old one, used in ancient Sumeria and Greece, and found in almost every culture. The bag acts as a reservoir for air, allowing for continuous sound. Many civic and court wind bands of the 15th and early 16th centuries include listings for bagpipes, but later they became the provenance of peasants, used for dances and festivities. Dulcian The dulcian, or bajón, as it was known in Spain, was developed somewhere in the second quarter of the 16th century, an attempt to create a bass reed instrument with a wide range but without the length of a bass shawm. This was accomplished by drilling a bore that doubled back on itself in the same piece of wood, producing an instrument effectively twice as long as the piece of wood that housed it and resulting in a sweeter and softer sound with greater dynamic flexibility. The dulcian provided the bass for brass and reed ensembles throughout its existence. During the 17th century, it became an important solo and continuo instrument and was played into the early 18th century, alongside the jointed bassoon which eventually displaced it.

Ključne besede: dulcijan, dvojni fagot, kontraf- Keywords: dulcian, Doppel Fagott, Fagotcontra, agot, Michael Praetorius, Syntagma musicum Michael Praetorius, Syntagma musicum In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, bass double-reed instruments were likely to be the most potent instruments able to sustain the bass part in compositions performed in large acoustic spaces. In spacious churches, high pitched instruments, such as the cornetto and the recorder, can sound crystal clear, whereas large bass instruments tend to become blurred and muffled as regards articulation. The distinctive “reedy” sound of bass double-reed instruments carries remarkably well in large spaces and is, therefore, a valuable addition to the continuo group. This article will focus on the Doppel Fagott and the Fagotcontra as described by Michael Praetorius in his Syntagma musicum (1614–1620). The Dulcian The dulcian is a double reed instrument, developed in the early sixteenth century suppos- edly by the Bassano family in the Veneto.

    BAROQUE WOODWIND INSTRUMENTS 1ST EDITION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Paul Carroll | 9781351574662 | | | | | Baroque Woodwind Instruments 1st edition PDF Book Because this arrangement of the fingers looked vaguely like the tines of a fork, some musicians call it a fork fingering. Recorders flauti dolci are sometimes used to express humility or poverty, such as in Bach's cantata Brich dem Hungrigen dein Brot , BWV Carrying forward Baroque practice, composers in the Classical era also wrote chamber music for mixed ensembles of winds with piano or strings or wind concerti, such as those for clarinet and bassoon by Mozart. A bassoon reed is bound with thread and wire over a steel mandrel, which is later removed to leave a hollow rounded stem. Examples of this type of flute include the recorder , ocarina , and organ pipes. Main article: Woodwind section. However, the larger sizes were unwieldy, which made them somewhat rare. The shawm became so closely associated with the town waits die Stadtpfeifer in German and I pifferi in Italian that it was also known as the wait-pipe. Wind instrument Article Media Additional Info. The saxophone, for example, though made of brass, is considered a woodwind because it requires a reed to produce sound. Wind instrument Article Media Additional Info. Because of the acoustic characteristics of flutes and reeds, only a few pitches are available on instruments lacking finger holes. Single-reed woodwinds produce sound by fixing a reed onto the opening of a mouthpiece using a ligature. This family includes the crumhorn. Later, flutes were made of metals such as tin , copper , or bronze.

Flute Why do loud, obnoxious whistles exist at some factories? • To give us some sort of appreciation for flutes. The flute may perhaps be the most exciting of all the woodwind instruments. Its versatile character allows it to be a regular fixture in all musical genres. Why is this so? Let’s go find out! Engaging the Past The flute is the oldest woodwind instrument. Historians estimate that flute-like instruments can be traced as far back as the 9th century B.C. Prehistoric artwork shows evidence of the use of flute like instruments. The modern mechanism of the flute was invented by Theobald Boehm. He was a German goldsmith who was an adept mechanical artist. He lived in Munich from 1794 to 1881. A flute player himself, Mr. Boehm designed and built flutes with his own key mechanism. His key system revolutionized the modern design of the flute since it allowed flute players to play difficult passages with ease.

This is a free e-book and cannot be sold. But you can give it away as may times you like to other bassoon players! FagotAtelier Maarten Vonk, historical development of the bassoon 2013 An overview of the historical development of the bassoon Musicians have been travelers for centuries, a privilege they shared – often through necessity – with noblemen, peddlers, soldiers and pilgrims. They played in groups attached to bishoprics, courts of the nobility, towns, army battalions or theatrical companies for as long as the boss would pay them, and if a band or orchestra was reduced in ranks or done away with altogether, they would take themselves off to pastures new to show off their artistry. Wind players and percussionists, with their loud and portable instruments, often played in the open air at processions, celebrations or pitched battles. Double reed instruments were already being used on such occasions in classical antiquity, and the middle ages saw the development of instruments like the crumhorn, shawm, korholt and bombard, the last of which played in the bass register. In the Renaissance period, polyphonic music was played on instruments from the same family and a quartet of crumhorns or viols was then described as a consort.

From the generation of Du Fay to the generation of Josquin and beyond, they emulated one another’s compositions, creating dynasties of musically related works. Love songs were composed honoring women known to the composer/poet. Colleagues sometimes penned heartfelt lamentations in honor of a deceased artist, writing some of the most expressive vocal polyphony of the Renaissance. One section of this class will read from original notation; please let us know if you are interested.
