To f ly o f o n understand their construction , and the art playing them , it n o n is necessary to resort to books treati g these subjects . Such - a one I have prepared and submit it to the music loving public . A visitor glancing at these instruments may at first View c o n M . sider them as antiquities , such as are met with in Art useums H erein he commits an error . I t is true that while engaged in my task as collector I discovered them in a dilapidated condition , and unfit to be played on . I n that state they did not exhibit n o o n e their former usefulness , and beholding them could surmise th a t they served the musicians o f the past centuries as m usi c al instruments , for which the great masters of that period composed ffi their divine works , and that they were of su cient capacity to o f transport the performer to the most exalted realms inspiration . so I have succeeded in repairing these instruments , that now , after centuries Of quiet rest , they appear in their original living s tate . In this I was actuated by the desire that these instruments Should serve a s a medium for performing on them the so compositions Of Bach and his contemporaries , as to enable the student Of music to hear these masterly works in their original garb . F o r this purpose I present these classical instruments to the public , and hope that doing this I may render some service to our present generation . S T E I N T M E R . N E W H V E N un 1 , 18 .

  • Electric & Acoustic Guitar Strings: a Recording of Harmonic Content
    Electric & Acoustic Guitar Strings: A Recording of Harmonic Content Ryan Lee, Graduate Researcher Electrical & Computer Engineering Department University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign In conjunction with Professor Steve Errede and the Department of Physics Friday, January 10, 2003 2 Introduction The purpose of this study was to analyze the harmonic content and decay of different guitar strings. Testing was done in two parts: 80 electric guitar strings and 145 acoustic guitar strings. The goal was to obtain data for as many different brands, types, and gauges of strings as possible. Testing Each string was tested only once, in brand new condition (unless otherwise noted). Once tuned properly, each string was plucked with a bare thumb in two different positions. For the electric guitar, the two positions were at the top of the bridge pickup and at the top of the neck pickup. For the acoustic guitar, the two positions were at the bottom of the sound hole and at the top of the sound hole. The signal path for the recording of an electric guitar string was as follows: 1994 Gibson SG Standard to ¼” input on a Mark of the Unicorn (MOTU) 896 to a computer (via firewire). Steinberg’s Cubase VST 5.0 was the software used to capture the .wav files. The 1999 Taylor 410CE acoustic guitar was recorded in an anechoic chamber. A Bruel & Kjær 4145 condenser microphone was connected directly to a Sony TCD-D8 portable DAT recorder (via its B&K preamp, power supply, and cables). Recording format was mono, 48 kHz, and 16- bit.

    Journal of the Violin Society of America, Volume XVI, No. 2 Proceedings of the 25th Annual National Convention New Designs and Modern Violins Saturday, November 8, 1997, 2:00 pm Albert Mell: From early childhood Guy Rabut has been very much in- volved with art and drawing, and this interest has been maintained throughout his career. After working in the Français shop under René Morel for a number of years, Guy opened his own shop on 28th Street in Manhattan, where he is concerned primarily with making new instruments. If you are in New York Iʼm sure he would be glad to see you. Since 1995 Guy has been working on what seems to be a new face of the violin. These are violins which are built acoustically according to traditional methods, but incorporate new design ideas to create an aesthetic interest. I give you Guy Rabut. Guy Rabut: Good afternoon. I would like to thank Phil Kass and the VSA for inviting me to speak today. I attended my first VSA meeting in 1980 when it was at Hofstra University. I have been to several since, and have always enjoyed myself and learned a great deal. For several years I have been pursuing traditional violin making. But always in the back of my mind I wanted to expand the aesthetic envelope and try some new designs and ideas within the parameters of violin mak- ing. As they evolved, the ideas went from non-traditional decorations on a traditional playing instrument to completely new forms and surface treat- ments on the acoustic skeleton of the traditional violin.

  • The Issue of Size: a Glimpse Into the History of the Violoncello Piccolo
    Page 1 The Issue of Size: A Glimpse into the History of the Violoncello Piccolo by Johanna Randvere Early Music Department University of the Arts, Sibelius Academy April 2020 Page 2 Abstract The aim of this research is to find out whether, how and why the size, tuning and the number of strings of the cello in the 17th and 18th centuries varied. There are multiple reasons to believe that the instrument we now recognize as a cello has not always been as clearly defined as now. There are written theoretical sources, original survived instruments, iconographical sources and cello music that support the hypothesis that smaller-sized cellos – violoncelli piccoli – were commonly used among string players of Europe in the Baroque era. The musical examples in this paper are based on my own experience as a cellist and viol player. The research is historically informed (HIP) and theoretically based on treatises concerning instruments from the 17th and the 18th centuries as well as articles by colleagues around the world. In the first part of this paper I will concentrate on the history of the cello, possible reasons for its varying dimensions and how the size of the cello affects playing it. Because this article is quite cello-specific, I have included a chapter concerning technical vocabulary in order to make my text more understandable also for those who are not acquainted with string instruments. In applying these findings to the music written for the piccolo, the second part of the article focuses on the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, namely cantatas with obbligato piccolo part, Cello Suite No.

  • J. S. Bach's Six Unaccompanied Cello Suites: What Did Bach Want?
    1 J. S. Bach’s Six Unaccompanied Cello Suites: What did Bach Want? Brooke Mickelson Composers of the Baroque period are known to have maintained a level of detachment from their music, writing scores absent of many now commonplace musical notations. This creates a problem for modern musicians who want to understand the composer’s vision. This analysis is driven by a call to understand Bach’s intended style for the six cello suites, debunking main controversies over the cello suites’ composition and discussing how its style features can be portrayed in performance. The Bachs and Origins of the Cello Suites The Bachs were a German family of amateur musicians who played in the church and the community. Johann Sebastian’s career began in this Bach tradition, playing organ in Lutheran churches, and he was one of a few family members to become a professional. He showed exceptional talent in improvisation and composition, and around age 20 became the church organist for the court in Weimar. In this first period, he composed organ and choral music for church services and events. 1 Looking for a change, Bach moved to become capellmeister (music director) for the court in Cöthen, where the prince was an amateur musician attempting to bring music into his court. This is considered his “instrumental period” because of Bach’s greater output of instrumental music to please the prince. Scholars believe that he composed the violin sonatas and partitas and the cello suites in this period. Finally, he moved to Leipzig to work as cantor (choir master) of Saint Thomas’s Church.
