  • Natural Trumpet Music and the Modern Performer A
    NATURAL TRUMPET MUSIC AND THE MODERN PERFORMER A Thesis Presented to The Graduate Faculty of The University of Akron In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Music Laura Bloss December, 2012 NATURAL TRUMPET MUSIC AND THE MODERN PERFORMER Laura Bloss Thesis Approved: Accepted: _________________________ _________________________ Advisor Dean of the College Dr. Brooks Toliver Dr. Chand Midha _________________________ _________________________ Faculty Reader Dean of the Graduate School Mr. Scott Johnston Dr. George R. Newkome _________________________ _________________________ School Director Date Dr. Ann Usher ii ABSTRACT The Baroque Era can be considered the “golden age” of trumpet playing in Western Music. Recently, there has been a revival of interest in Baroque trumpet works, and while the research has grown accordingly, the implications of that research require further examination. Musicians need to be able to give this factual evidence a context, one that is both modern and historical. The treatises of Cesare Bendinelli, Girolamo Fantini, and J.E. Altenburg are valuable records that provide insight into the early development of the trumpet. There are also several important modern resources, most notably by Don Smithers and Edward Tarr, which discuss the historical development of the trumpet. One obstacle for modern players is that the works of the Baroque Era were originally played on natural trumpet, an instrument that is now considered a specialty rather than the standard. Trumpet players must thus find ways to reconcile the inherent differences between Baroque and current approaches to playing by combining research from early treatises, important trumpet publications, and technical and philosophical input from performance practice essays.

    trumpeteers or buglers, were never called bandsmen. They had the military rank, uniform and insignia of a fifer, a drummer, a d trumpeteer or a bugler. d Collectively, they could be called the fifes l l & drums, the trumpets & drums, the drum & bugle corps, the corps of drums, the drum e e corps, or they could be referred to simply as i the drums in regiments of foot or the i trumpets in mounted units. f f Since the 19th century, the United States military has termed these soldier musicians e the “Field Music.” This was to distinguish e them from the non-combatant professional l l musicians of the Band of Music. The Field Music’s primary purpose was t t one of communication and command, t whether on the battlefield, in camp, in t garrison or on the march.

  • Rhetoric Level - Music
    Catholic Schoolhouse Year 3 - Rhetoric Level - Music Quarter 4 – Brass Instruments Class Opener: Brainstorm all the places and genres that you recall in which brass instruments commonly perform. Which are your favorites? Can you easily tell when you are hearing a brass instrument versus another kind of instrument? How can you tell? Brass Instruments The brass family of instruments are wind instruments usually made of brass or other metal through which a sound is produced by buzzing the lips into a mouthpiece and using the lips, chin and tongue to alter the pitch. Brass instruments are aerophones, or wind instruments, and though they may appear fairly complicated, they are really just a long metal tube through which air travels. These metal tubes are typically bent into S-curves or loops to make them more compact and easy to handle, but if they were each to be stretched to their maximum length, it would be evident that the shorter instruments produce higher sounds than the longer ones. That is because the column of air in the instrument, like the length of the string on a violin or cello, is what vibrates and determines the pitch. The pitch of a brass instrument can be altered by using the lips alone to reach the octaves, fifths and fourths, but the remaining notes are produced by means of valves, which redirect the air through the metal tube in various directions, or slides, which lengthen the metal tube to various degrees. Brass mouthpiece image credit Basic brass instruments include the trumpet, French horn, trombone, and tuba.

  • 20-US-Bugle-Calls.Pdf
    Twenty Bugle Calls As sounded in the U.S. Armed Forces Compiled and edited by WWW.TAPSBUGLER.COMJari Villanueva These are bugle calls sounded in the United Sates Armed Forces. The calls are printed along with a brief explanation of their origin and use. Bugle calls can be sounded on trumpets or cornets when a bugle is not available. Bugle calls have been used in the military since armies have been formed. A useful tool for sending communications over a long distance, they were also important in everyday military life. Today most calls are used in ceremonial settings and at times designated by base commanders. Although troops are no longer maneuvered by the sound of bugles they remain an essential part of our military heritage. Bugle calls are classified into three categories-Warning Calls, Formation Calls, and Service Calls. Sounding bugle calls is an important duty. Every effort should be made to sound perfect calls in keeping with the occasion of a military ceremony. Calls should be sounded with conviction and played musically with good intonation. They should be sounded in place. The following calls are listed in the general order they are sounded during the day. Calls requiring a hand salute are noted. Twenty Bugle Calls As sounded in the U.S. Armed Forces FIRST CALL (Warning Call)-Sounded as signal for those who are to participate in a formation or ceremony to get ready. It also is used as a signal for all buglers to assemble. This call dates from the French cavalry- “Pour la Reunion des Trompettes”-1804 by David Buhl.
