  • The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a New Look at Musical Instrument Classification
    The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a new look at musical instrument classification by Roderic C. Knight, Professor of Ethnomusicology Oberlin College Conservatory of Music, © 2015, Rev. 2017 Introduction The year 2015 marks the beginning of the second century for Hornbostel-Sachs, the venerable classification system for musical instruments, created by Erich M. von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs as Systematik der Musikinstrumente in 1914. In addition to pursuing their own interest in the subject, the authors were answering a need for museum scientists and musicologists to accurately identify musical instruments that were being brought to museums from around the globe. As a guiding principle for their classification, they focused on the mechanism by which an instrument sets the air in motion. The idea was not new. The Indian sage Bharata, working nearly 2000 years earlier, in compiling the knowledge of his era on dance, drama and music in the treatise Natyashastra, (ca. 200 C.E.) grouped musical instruments into four great classes, or vadya, based on this very idea: sushira, instruments you blow into; tata, instruments with strings to set the air in motion; avanaddha, instruments with membranes (i.e. drums), and ghana, instruments, usually of metal, that you strike. (This itemization and Bharata’s further discussion of the instruments is in Chapter 28 of the Natyashastra, first translated into English in 1961 by Manomohan Ghosh (Calcutta: The Asiatic Society, v.2). The immediate predecessor of the Systematik was a catalog for a newly-acquired collection at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels. The collection included a large number of instruments from India, and the curator, Victor-Charles Mahillon, familiar with the Indian four-part system, decided to apply it in preparing his catalog, published in 1880 (this is best documented by Nazir Jairazbhoy in Selected Reports in Ethnomusicology – see 1990 in the timeline below).

Building a Relationship with Percussion Instruments Bill Matney, Kalani Das, & Michael Marcionetti Materials used with permission by Sarsen Publishing and Kalani Das, 2017 Building a relationship with percussion instruments Going somewhere new can be exciting; it might also be a little intimidating or cause some anxiety. If I go to a party where I don’t know anybody except the person who invited me, how do I get to know anyone else? My host will probably be gracious enough to introduce me to others at the party. I will get to know their name, where they are from, and what they commonly do for work and play. In turn, they will get to know the same about me. We may decide to continue our relationship by learning more about each other and doing things together. As music therapy students, we develop relationships with music instruments. We begin by learning instrument names, and by getting to know a little about the instrument. We continue our relationship by learning technique and by playing music with them! Through our experiences and growth, we will be able to help clients develop their own relationships with instruments and music, and therefore be able to 1 strengthen the therapeutic process.

  • A Study of the Relationship Between Traditional Peking Opera and Contemporary Western Percussion Music in Mu Kuei-Yin in Percussion by Chien-Hui Hung
    A STUDY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRADITIONAL PEKING OPERA AND CONTEMPORARY WESTERN PERCUSSION MUSIC IN MU KUEI-YIN IN PERCUSSION BY CHIEN-HUI HUNG Isabelle Huang Streng A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS December 2012 Committee: Roger Schupp, Advisor Fleming Fallon Graduate Faculty Representative Marilyn Shrude Kenneth Thompson © 2012 Isabelle Huang Streng All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Roger Schupp, Advisor The art of traditional music has diminished in significance in educational and cultural institutions in Taiwan and has been gradually replaced by Western music in schools and concerts. Some artists in Taiwan have observed the potential impact of the loss of this vibrant art form and have tried new ways to regain the public’s attention. Taiwanese composer Chien-Hui Hung and the Ju Percussion Group have done numerous cross-cultural productions incorporating traditional arts with Western concert music as an effort to preserve and regain attention for Taiwanese culture. The aim of this study is to examine one of these endeavors to combine traditional arts and modern Western percussion music in Chien-Hui Hung’s Mu Kuei-Yin In Percussion. This doctoral document is the first to discuss Chien-Hui Hung’s music and her working relationship with Ju Percussion Group. Chapter One of this document consists of the author’s interview with the composer discussing her musical background, education, relationship with Ju Percussion Group, and her view of the current development of music in Taiwan – both Western and traditional.

  • How to Purchase Concert Percussion Accessories Cymbals
    How To Purchase Concert Percussion Accessories by Neil W. Grover A more accurate title for this piece should be, “Concert Percussion Accessories; What To Purchase?” Buying is the easy part, deciding what to purchase is the task at hand. Acquiring a viable array of instruments for a student percussionist is an important, yet often neglected, part of a music educator’s core responsibilities. All too often, I encounter band rooms where quality percussion accessories are lacking, and unacceptable substitutes are used. For some reason, percussion accessories seem to be relegated to bottom of a music educator’s line item budget. Excuses like “my percussionists just don’t take care of the accessories” or “we already have a (rock) tambourine” breed an atmosphere whereby students are forced to play on inadequate instruments which would make even a pro like me sound unmusical! Playing musically is difficult enough with a good quality triangle, no less a cheap piece of junk! It’s important to realize that quality should not come at the expense of quantity. While being sensitive to budget restrictions is more important than ever, it is possible for the average music department to identify, and (over time), purchase an array of quality percussion accessories, which when cared for, provide many years of trouble free service. Percussion accessories run the gamut from whip to flexatone: triangle to log drum. For the purpose of this article, I will concentrate on those instruments which are most critical and basic to the educational percussion program. Cymbals Cymbals are instruments of great artistic expression. Just listen to a recording of Tchaikovsky’s “Romeo & Juliet Overture”, or Debussy’s tone poem “La Mer.” Ah, those glorious overtones, which can only be produced by a good set of cymbals.

  • Flexatone 1 Flexatone
    Flexatone 1 Flexatone The flexatone is a modern percussion instrument (an indirectly struck idiophone) consisting of a small flexible metal sheet suspended in a wire frame ending in a handle. [1] History, construction and technique An invention for a flexatone occurs in the British Patent Records of 1922 and 1923. In 1924 the 'Flex-a-tone' was patented in the USA by the Playatone Company of New York. A wooden knob mounted on a strip of spring steel lies on each side of the metal sheet. The player holds the flexatone in one hand with the palm around the wire frame and the thumb on the free end of the spring steel. The player then shakes the instrument with a trembling movement which causes the beaters to strike the sides of the metal sheet. While shaking the handle, the musician makes a high- or low-pitched sound depending on the curve given to the blade by the Flexatone pressure from his thumb. A vibrato is thus produced. An alternate technique involves removing the two wooden knobs and their mounting springs, and then using a small metal rod (e.g., a triangle beater) held in the free hand striking the strip of spring steel. The pitch is altered in the same manner as the previous technique. This method of playing results in a different, more constrained sound. Uses The flexatone is sometimes heard in funk music, and occasionally in pop music for special effect. It is occasionally used in the soundtracks of films or cartoons to represent "ghosts" or other paranormal phenomena.
