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.

From a compact and reliable solid-state console emanates a full ensemble of pure classic voices suited to the interpretation of traditional organ literature as well as service music of the contemporary church. Incorporated into its design are the elements necessary for practice and teaching, making the( Organ '-- also an ideal instrument for school or studio. Because this organ is capable of such a broad range of tonal color and flexibility, no attempt will be made to completely catalogue the many possible stop combinations available. It is hoped, however, that the registration suggestions and other information contained here will serve as a proper introduction to the musical resources of your new Rodgers Organ o An organ's sound is constructed by the various combinations of sounds of the families of tone found on the organ. The uniqueness of different sounds on an organ is the fact that they are found at different pitch levels (octaves). A stop that is engraved with an 8' sounds at the same pitch level as a piano. When you play middle "C" on the organ with an 8' stop on, you hear the same note as you would playing middle "C" on the piano. You will notice that other stops have 16',4', 2', 2-2/3', and 1-3/5' engraved on them.
