Mean intraoral pressure was 8.37 mBar across all ethnic wind instruments and 5.21 ± 2.16 mBar for Native American flutes. The range of pressure in Native American flutes closely matches pressure reported in Keywords: Intraoral pressure; Native other studies for normal speech, and the maximum intraoral pressure, 20.55 American flute; mBar, is below the highest subglottal pressure reported in other studies during Wind instruments; singing.

The History and Practices of a Native American Flute Circle

Miller ________________________________, Director, School of Music Denise A. Seachrist ________________________________, Dean, College of the Arts John R. Crawford ii JONES, MARY JANE, M.A., AUGUST, 2010 MUSIC REVIVAL AND COMMUNITY: THE HISTORY AND PRACTICES OF A NATIVE AMERICAN FLUTE CIRCLE (64 PP.) Director of Thesis: Terry E. Miller Much knowledge about the Native American flute was lost following the suppression of Native American musical traditions by the United States government around the turn of the twentieth century. A renewal of interest in the instrument occurred in the latter part of the twentieth century, but few knew how to play the flute stylistically. As flute enthusiasts began meeting to learn and play together, flute circles emerged throughout North America and around the world. This thesis examines one such circle in Northeast Ohio and offers insight into the views and motivations of its members of Native descent. The practices of the flute circle and the relationships that formed among its members are investigated, as well as the reasons why these people have chosen to connect with their roots by means of playing the flute.

The Fujara – a Symbol of Slovak Folk Music and New Ways of Its Usage
STUDIA INSTRUMENTORUM MUSICAE POPULARIS XVI Tarptautinės tradicinės muzikos tarybos Liaudies muzikos instrumentų tyrimų grupės XVI tarptautinės konferencijos straipsniai / ICTM Study Group on Folk Musical Instruments Proceedings from the 16th International Meeting ISSN 1392–2831 Tautosakos darbai XXXII 2006 THE FUJARA – A SYMBOL OF SLOVAK FOLK MUSIC AND NEW WAYS OF ITS USAGE BERNARD GARAJ Department of Ethnology and Ethnomusicology, Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra, Slovakia S u b j e c t: The fujara as the most significant musical instrument of the Slovak folk music. P u r p o s e o f s t u d y: To present how an originally three-hole flute of shepherds in central parts of Slovakia has became a symbol of culture, nation and country. M e t h o d s: Historical, descriptive. K e y w o r d s: Fujara, symbols, tradition and innovation, musical usage. Characteristics of the Instrument From the point of view of organology, the fujara is an approximately 180 cm long cylindrical overtone whistle with three finger holes. It consists of two tubes: the main tube is connected to a shorter one through which the airflow is channelled to the edge of the large bass flute. From the point of view of acoustics, the tones change by the intensity of blowing, i.e. over blowing into aliquot tones and by using the three finger holes. The fujara is characterized by a mixolydic or hypoionic scale while the range of the instrument is up to 3 octaves (Elschek 1983: 160). From the point of view of repertoire and interpretation, mainly slow, nostalgic and emotional shepherds’ or highwaymen’s songs are played on the fujara.

Wye---A-History-Of-The-Flute.Pdf
A History of the Flute Trevor Wye 1. Whistles What a daunting prospect to write a simple flute history without missing anything. Looking at a pamphlet a few years ago, it stated that in the South Pacific Islands, those tiny islands south of Hawai, there are about 1300 different named flutes. Our modern flute is just one of thousands of flutes worldwide of all shapes and sizes from miniature ocarinas to giants like the Slovakian Fujara. A sensible way to begin would be to understand how flutes are made to emit sound and so we will look at the four main varieties. These are Endblown where the player blows across the end of the tube; Sideblown as in our modern flute; a Fipple or encapsulated such as is found in a referee's whistle and a Globular flute such as in ocarinas and gemshorns. In all cases, the air is directed against a sharp edge which causes the air to alternate between entering the tube where it meets resistance, then shifting to going outside the tube. This alternation takes place at great speed causing the air inside the tube or vessel to vibrate and so make a sound. In the endblown flute shown below, the tube is held upright and the air directed across the cutaway top of the tube. The fipple flute is sounded by the player directing air through a tube or windway against the sharp edge. An example is the recorder and the pitch is changed by covering the holes down the tube in succession. Globular flutes are sounded either by blowing across a hole or via the fipple which is connected to the 'globe' shown above, though the way the instrument responds is unlike the whistle; the notes can be changed by uncovering any hole, no matter in what position it is placed.

Traditional Armenian Instrumental Music That Was Lacking Has Finally Arrived!
GERARD MADILIAN TRADITIONAL ARMENIAN INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC Jan. 2020 GERARD MADILIAN TRADITIONAL ARMENIAN INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC 1 2 FOREWORD Transmitted from generation to generation, and moving away from its rural origins to perpetuate itself in an urban context, Armenian traditional music has not lost its original strength. History has buried many secrets along the way, but we will try to gather together this heritage through the work of passionate musicologists. This work is neither a manual nor an encyclopedia, but instead presents a synthesis of knowledge acquired over time. It is dedicated to all those who wish to discover or better understand this unusual musical universe. Armenian words transcribed into English (phonetic of Eastern Armenian) will be indicated with a capital first letter and will remain in the singular. The author 3 4 PREFACE The long-awaited book on traditional Armenian instrumental music that was lacking has finally arrived! As my long-time friend Gerard Madilian wrote in his foreword: "History has buried many secrets along the way." It was thus urgent to share the fruits of this research with the general public, and that is why this work was deliberately written in French and translated into English, to make it widely available to as many people as possible. This book is a digest including the essential elements needed to form an opinion in this area. The specialized website www.armentrad.org was in fact selected by the author for this purpose of dissemination. I have shared the same passion with Gerard for many years, having myself practiced the Tar within the Sayat Nova ensemble, which was a traditional Armenian ensemble founded in Paris in 1965.
