ABC TV Education Resources – House of Sound – Woodwind Teacher Notes ABC ME Learning activity House Of Sound – Woodwind ABC ME screening details: Wednesday 13 May, 2020 at 10:45am This episode can also be viewed on ABC iView. Key learning areas: Music Level: Levels 3-6 About: Greg Foot and Fran Scott explain how woodwind instruments work and make all sorts of different sounds. Before the episode 1. Find an empty 1.25L or 2L plastic bottle. Rinse the bottle out and remove the lid. Can you blow across the top of the opening to create a tone? It might take some practice! You can also ask an adult to demonstrate the technique. Use lines on the illustration to explain where you think the air is travelling. After the episode 1. Look at the previous illustration. Were your lines close to the demonstration seen in the episode. If not, use a different colour to show the direction that the air is travelling. 2. Now put some water in the bottle (not too much!) and blow across the top again. What do you now notice about the new tone? Is it higher or lower than the original tone? Explain why you think the tone is different when water is added to the bottle? 3. A woodwind instrument produces sound by splitting an exhaled stream of air on a sharp edge, such as a reed or a fipple. Circle the instruments below that you think belong to the woodwind family. Remember; they’re not always made of wood! flute bagpipes piano drum kit saxophone electric guitar clarinet Double bass tin whistle bassoon ocarina xylophone Follow-up activity: Can you invent your own woodwind instrument? Use the ideas shown in this episode and the help of an adult to have a go. 2 ABC TV Education resources – House of Sound – Woodwind Teacher notes This resource contains self-directed learning activities that students can complete while learning at home or in the classroom.

  • Some Acoustic Characteristics of the Tin Whistle
    Proceedings of the Institute of Acoustics SOME ACOUSTIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE TIN WHISTLE POAL Davies ISVR, University of Southampton, Southampton, UK J Pinho ISVR, Southampton University, Southampton, UK EJ English ISVR, Southampton University, Southampton, UK 1 INTRODUCTION The sustained excitation of a tuned resonator by shed vorticity in a separating shear layer 1 or the whistling produced by the impingement of thin fluid jets on an edge 2 have both been exploited by the makers of musical instruments from time immemorial. Familiar examples include pan­pipes, recorders, flutes, organ flue pipes 1­3 , and so on. Over the centuries, the acquisition of the necessary knowledge and skill for their successful production must have been laboriously accomplished by much trial and error. A more physically explicit understanding of the basic controlling mechanisms began to emerge during the great upsurge in scientific observation and discovery from the mid­19th century, as this was also accompanied by the relevant developments in physics, acoustics and fluid mechanics. These mechanisms can take several forms, depending on subtle differences in local and overall geometric detail and its relation to the magnitude, direction and distribution of any flow that is generating sound. One such form includes many examples of reverberant systems, where separating shear layers 3,4 provide the conditions where this coupled flow acoustic behaviour may occur. It is well known 1­4 that whenever a flow leaves a downstream facing edge it separates, forming a thin shear layer or vortex sheet. Such sheets, which involve high transverse velocity gradients, are very unstable and rapidly develop waves 1­4 .

  • FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN (1732–1809) Symphony No
    FRI MAY 19 — 11 A.M. FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN (1732–1809) Symphony No. 39 (1765) Symphony no. 39 in G minor was described as Sturm und Drang; a term taken from a literary movement named after a play of the same name by Friedrich Maximilian Klinger. The musical language is intensely expressive and full of extreme contrasts. James Webster describes the works of this period as “longer, more passionate, and more daring” and “proto-Romantic.” LISTEN FOR: 1. Allegro assai After a nervous first four measures, there’s a grand pause before we move on, heightening the tension and adding to the sense of unease. Can you hear why this movement was associated with Sturm und Drang? 2. Andante A.P. Brown describes this movement as an elegant, “ingratiating little waltz” for Recommended Recording: strings. It features a lot of rhythmic variation of the main themes, as well as a lot of strong Haydn: Symphonies Volume 5, contrasts in dynamics—which help tie this to the other Sturm und Drang movements. The Academy of Ancient Music, Christopher Hogwood, conducting 3. Menuet & Trio Another study in contrasts: a minor-keyed minuet contrasts with a bright trio in major, featuring high notes for the first horn. 4. Finale A true Sturm und Drang close to the symphony. It opens with a tremolando string accompaniment—quick, repeated notes that seem to tremble and shimmer. GYÖRGY LIGETI (1923–2006) Piano Concerto (1988) The piece was commissioned for pianist Anthony di Bonaventura, who wrote: “When it arrived, I just couldn’t decipher it.” The composer’s autograph score is incredibly dense, with thousands of notes and accidentals crammed into the tiniest spaces.

  • Fomrhi Comm. 2099 Jan Bouterse Making Woodwind Instruments
    FoMRHI Comm. 2099 Jan Bouterse Making woodwind instruments 11: Recorders 11.1 Introduction: recorders as flutes with a windway The term ‘recorder’ for the internal duct flute or fipple flute exists only in the English language. In other languages names are used in which characteristics of the instrument are indicated: flauto dolce (‘soft flute’ for its sound), blokfluit and Blockflöte (‘plug flute’ for the block or plug as essential part in the head), flûte à bec or Schnabelflöte (for the bill or beak-like shape of the upper end of the head). See Edgar Hunt’s good old The recorder and its Music (1966) or not so old Wikipedia for more information about the etymology and the history of the recorder. With the reintroduction of historical instruments in the 20th century some original names also reappeared, such as the sixth flute (soprano recorder in d2) and the voice flute (tenor recorder in d1). It is a reminder that in the the 17th and 18th centuries the term ‘flute’, or in other languages: Flöte, fluit, flauto, flûte, was also - or was even mainly - used for the recorder which is a woodwind instrument in the group known as internal duct flutes: flutes with a whistle mouthpiece, also called fipple flutes. Wikipedia discusses the confusion in terminology: until the mid-18th century, musical scores written in Italian refer to the recorder as flauto, whereas the transverse instrument was called flauto traverso. This distinction, like the English switch from ‘recorder’ to ‘flute’, has caused confusion among modern editors, writers and performers. Indeed, in most European languages, the first term for the recorder was the word for flute alone.

  • Romanian Traditional Musical Instruments
    GRU-10-P-LP-57-DJ-TR ROMANIAN TRADITIONAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS Romania is a European country whose population consists mainly (approx. 90%) of ethnic Romanians, as well as a variety of minorities such as German, Hungarian and Roma (Gypsy) populations. This has resulted in a multicultural environment which includes active ethnic music scenes. Romania also has thriving scenes in the fields of pop music, hip hop, heavy metal and rock and roll. During the first decade of the 21st century some Europop groups, such as Morandi, Akcent, and Yarabi, achieved success abroad. Traditional Romanian folk music remains popular, and some folk musicians have come to national (and even international) fame. ROMANIAN TRADITIONAL MUSIC Folk music is the oldest form of Romanian musical creation, characterized by great vitality; it is the defining source of the cultured musical creation, both religious and lay. Conservation of Romanian folk music has been aided by a large and enduring audience, and by numerous performers who helped propagate and further develop the folk sound. (One of them, Gheorghe Zamfir, is famous throughout the world today, and helped popularize a traditional Romanian folk instrument, the panpipes.) The earliest music was played on various pipes with rhythmical accompaniment later added by a cobza. This style can be still found in Moldavian Carpathian regions of Vrancea and Bucovina and with the Hungarian Csango minority. The Greek historians have recorded that the Dacians played guitars, and priests perform songs with added guitars. The bagpipe was popular from medieval times, as it was in most European countries, but became rare in recent times before a 20th century revival.
