  • 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.

  • Key Signatures Meters Tempo Clefs and Transpositions Position Work
    The composition criteria for MSHSAA sight reading selections were revised in 2013-14. As a result, the committee determined that it would be beneficial to music directors throughout the state to have this criterion available to assist in preparations for sight reading. With this information in hand, directors will have a better understanding of the difficulty of the selection that will be used and will know what to expect in regard to rhythms, ranges, time signatures, etc. Key Signatures Key Signatures will be limited to the following: C, G, D, F, Bb major and relative natural minors. There should be at least one key signature change per piece. Meters Meters will be limited to the following: 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, Cut Time, 6/8 Tempo Tempi will be no slower than 72 beats per minute and no faster than 120 beats per minute. For continuous pieces, there will be at least one tempo change, but no more than two. Clefs and Transpositions Viola can have limited use of treble clef. Cello can have limited use of tenor clef. Position Work for Strings 3rd position and minimal use of 5th position may be used in the violin 1 part only. Minimal 3rd position work may be used in the violin 2 and viola parts. Half, 2nd, 3rd and 4th position work may be used in the cello part. Half position to the fourth position work may be used in the bass part. Divisi Limited use of divisi parts may be written. Repeats 1st and 2nd endings may be used.

  • 6Th Grade Clarinet
    Band Virtual Learning 6th Grade Clarinet April 27th, 2020 6th Grade Clarinet Lesson: April 27th, 2020 Objective/Learning Target: Students will learn some common articulation definitions and some exercises for implementation. Let’s Get Started with a Quick Review: Let’s do our breathing exercises, and a few scales! Review : Breathing Exercises 1. Start with checking your posture while seated in a chair. If it is possible, position yourself in front of a full-length mirror. 2. Take a deep breathe and hold for 4 counts. 3. Next, sizzle out the air for 4 counts. 4. Repeat the same exercise but increase the amount of counts 8,12,etc. 5. It is important to sizzle your air for the same amount of counts that you held it for, one solid continuous sizzle. Click HERE for a video explanation! Review: Scales - Begin your warm up with some scales - How about we start with Concert A flat, Concert E flat and Concert F. - Play them in different rhythm patterns, use your creativity! Example: Be careful not to always play the same scales, learn all of them! It will help you out as you play different music. Articulation: Articulation in music refers to how specific notes or passages are played in terms of note length, attack intensity, etc. Composers and arrangers provide articulation directions in the form of written notation, symbols placed above or below notes. Here are some common articulation markings and their definitions. Articulation Markings: Staccato ([stakˈkaːto]; Italian for "detached") is a form of musical articulation. In modern notation, it signifies a note of shortened duration, separated from the note that may follow by silence.

Staccatissimo means extremely shortened duration. Staccato means shortened duration. Tenuto has two functions: it can mean full duration OR a slight stress or emphasis. Accent means stressed or emphasized (more than tenuto). Marcato means extremely stressed. An articulation of duration (staccatissimo, staccato, or tenuto) may combine with one of stress (tenuto, accent, or marcato). articulations of duration œÆ œ. œ- >œ œ^ & staccatto tenuto accent marcato staccattisimo articulations of stress Slurs Slurs are curved lines connecting different pitches. Slurs can mean: (1.)

  • Articulations & Note Shapes
    Slurred - smooth and continuous air flow It’s important to understand that an accent is not only > or ^ or any other mark, but rather that an accent is something that interrupts consistency. Legato- smooth and continuous air flow with introduction of the tongue to gently add diction from note to note. Air should feel much like the slurred air; consistent and smooth. Tongue is now added to slice that steady airstream. Move the tongue quickly and lightly as to not allow for any breaks or space between the notes. Accented notes - to accent - meaning to bring out. There are a number of ways to bring out a note. The above illustrated way is by making the beginning of the note the loudest point. (Entrance - body - release) In fast music, the note will generally taper all the way the start of the next note. In slower music the note should taper, but quickly stabilize at an appropriate dynamic level. The word staccato means ‘detached.’ As previously discussed in page 3.A, detached is accomplished by manipulating the space between the notes, and NOT the front or backend of the notes. Simply decrease the length of the body of the note slightly to allow for additional space to be added following said note. staccato notes should be tonally beautiful and not Percussive in nature. Marcato - played with emphasis Marcato - played with emphasis This marking is performed in widely varied and oftentimes contrasting ways. If you heard a marcato in the music of Stravinsky followed by a marcato in the music of Bruckner you would almost certainly call them different things.

    © 2012 David Cornelius Sawatzky. All Rights Reserved. AN ANALYSIS OF GRAPHIC NOTATION AND ITS IMPACT ON CONDUCTING GESTURE IN SELECTED WORKS OF R. MURRAY SCHAFER BY DAVID CORNELIUS SAWATZKY DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Music with a concentration in Choral Music in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Chester Alwes, Chair, Director of Research Professor Tom Ward Professor Jerold Siena Assistant Professor Philipp Blume Abstract R. Murray Schafer has deliberately used a number of different compositional styles in his career, including both standard and graphic notation for both vocal and instrumental ensembles. It can be assumed that both styles of composition accurately represent his musical and aesthetic ideas. However, works written in graphical notation require new methods of interpretation by performers and conductors. The first of Schafer’s compositions to utilize graphic notation was Statement in Blue (1964), written for a class of eighth-grade students. Compositions such as In Search of Zoroaster, Apocalypsis I & II, Gita, et al. followed. This dissertation will address three questions. First, how does the graphic notation reflect Schafer’s artistic concerns? Second, what musical parameters does Schafer incorporate into his graphical notation? Third, what are the implications of these works on conductors and performers? The hypothesis proffered here is that the nature of Schafer’s graphical notation necessitates the development of new conducting gestures for the effective rehearsal and performance of these works. The first chapter of this dissertation will outline Schafer’s relationship with graphical notation.
