  • The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a New Look at Musical Instrument Classification
    The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a new look at musical instrument classification by Roderic C. Knight, Professor of Ethnomusicology Oberlin College Conservatory of Music, © 2015, Rev. 2017 Introduction The year 2015 marks the beginning of the second century for Hornbostel-Sachs, the venerable classification system for musical instruments, created by Erich M. von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs as Systematik der Musikinstrumente in 1914. In addition to pursuing their own interest in the subject, the authors were answering a need for museum scientists and musicologists to accurately identify musical instruments that were being brought to museums from around the globe. As a guiding principle for their classification, they focused on the mechanism by which an instrument sets the air in motion. The idea was not new. The Indian sage Bharata, working nearly 2000 years earlier, in compiling the knowledge of his era on dance, drama and music in the treatise Natyashastra, (ca. 200 C.E.) grouped musical instruments into four great classes, or vadya, based on this very idea: sushira, instruments you blow into; tata, instruments with strings to set the air in motion; avanaddha, instruments with membranes (i.e. drums), and ghana, instruments, usually of metal, that you strike. (This itemization and Bharata’s further discussion of the instruments is in Chapter 28 of the Natyashastra, first translated into English in 1961 by Manomohan Ghosh (Calcutta: The Asiatic Society, v.2). The immediate predecessor of the Systematik was a catalog for a newly-acquired collection at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels. The collection included a large number of instruments from India, and the curator, Victor-Charles Mahillon, familiar with the Indian four-part system, decided to apply it in preparing his catalog, published in 1880 (this is best documented by Nazir Jairazbhoy in Selected Reports in Ethnomusicology – see 1990 in the timeline below).

  • Panpipes As Units of Cultural Analysis and Dispersal
    Evolutionary Human Sciences (2020), 2, e17, page 1 of 11 doi:10.1017/ehs.2020.15 RESEARCH ARTICLE Panpipes as units of cultural analysis and dispersal Gabriel Aguirre-Fernández1*† , Damián E. Blasi2–6 and Marcelo R. Sánchez-Villagra1* 1Palaeontological Institute and Museum, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland, 2Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA, 3Department of Linguistic and Cultural Evolution, Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History, Jena, Thuringia, Germany, 4Quantitative Linguistics Laboratory, Kazan Federal University, Kazan, Republic of Tatarstan, 5Institute for the Study of Language Evolution, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland and 6Human Relations Area Files, Yale University, CT, USA *Corresponding authors. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract The panpipe is a musical instrument composed of end-blown tubes of different lengths tied together. They can be traced back to the Neolithic, and they have been found at prehistoric sites in China, Europe and South America. Panpipes display substantial variation in space and time across functional and aesthetic dimensions. Finding similarities in panpipes that belong to distant human groups poses a challenge to cultural evolution: while some have claimed that their relative simplicity speaks for independent inven- tions, others argue that strong similarities of specific features in panpipes from Asia, Oceania and South America suggest long-distance diffusion events. We examined 20 features of a worldwide sample of 401 panpipes and analysed statistically whether instrument features can successfully be used to deter- mine provenance. The model predictions suggest that panpipes are reliable provenance markers, but we found an unusual classification error in which Melanesian panpipes are predicted as originating in South America.

  • Virtual Musical Field Trip with Maestro Andrew Crust
    YOUR PASSPORT TO A VIRTUAL MUSICAL FIELD TRIP WITH MAESTRO ANDREW CRUST Premier Education Partner Za The Conductor Today, you met Andrew Crust, the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra’s Assistant Conductor. He joined the VSO this season in September of 2019. He grew up in Kansas City, and his main instrument is the trumpet. He studied music education and conducting, and has worked with orchestras in Canada, the United States, Italy, Germany, the Czech Republic, Chile, and many other exotic places. The conductor keeps the orchestra in time and together. The conductor serves as a messenger for the composer. It is their responsibility to understand the music and convey it through movements so clearly that the musicians in the orchestra understand it perfectly. Those musicians can then send a unified vision of the music out to the audience. Conductors usually beat time with their right hand. This leaves their left hand free to show the various instruments when they have entries (when they start playing) or to show them to play louder or softer. Most conductors have a stick called a “baton”. It makes it easier for people at the back of large orchestras or choirs to see the beat. Other conductors prefer not to use a baton. A conductor stands on a small platform called a “rostrum”. To be a good conductor is not easy. It is not just a question of giving a steady beat. A good conductor has to know the music extremely well so that they can hear any wrong notes. They need to be able to imagine exactly the sound they want the orchestra to make.

A brass instrument is a musical instrument that you play by vibrating your lips into a mouthpiece (that is placed against your mouth) to pro- duce high or low notes (this is called buzzing). No sound will come out if you just blow air through it! Interestingly, it does not matter whether the instrument are made of brass, as long as it works the way explained above.
