Welcome to the 6Th Grade Band! What Instruments Can I Play? Parke Heritage Band Welcome to the 6th Grade Band! What instruments can I play? Flute Trumpet Oboe Trombone Clarinet Baritone Bassoon Percussion Alto Saxophone Tenor Saxophone Which is your favorite? French Horn FLUTE The flute is a woodwind instrument. The flute does not use a reed; sound is made by blowing air across the opening. OBOE The oboe is a double-reeded wind instrument. Double-reeds are two reeds tied together. Noise is made by blowing into the instrument through the reeds. CLARINET The clarinet is a woodwind with a single reed. This instrument has many keys and sound is made by blowing into the mouthpiece. BASSOON The bassoon is a large double-reed instrument. It is similar to the oboe but much larger and has a much deeper voice. SAXOPHONE The saxophone is a woodwind instrument made of brass. Noise is made using a single reed and mouthpiece. Alto saxophones are smaller and higher in pitch, while tenor saxophones are larger and smaller in pitch. TRUMPET The trumpet is a brass instrument. Sound is made by buzzing your lips into the mouthpiece. A trumpet has 3 valves. FRENCH HORN The french horn is a brass instrument made of tubing wrapped into a coil. The french horn is also known as the horn. TROMBONE The trombone is brass instrument with a long slide. Sound is made by buzzing your lips into the mouthpiece. BARITONE The baritone is a low-brass instrument with 3 valves. Sound can be made by buzzing your lips into the mouthpiece. The baritone is also called the euphonium. PERCUSSION Percussion is the music group that includes many types of drums and bells. In your first year in band, you will focus on snare drum and xylophone, but will eventually get to use all kinds of percussion instruments. ANY QUESTIONS? .

  • 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.

  • Aerophones in Flatland: Interactive Wave Simulation of Wind Instruments
    Aerophones in Flatland: Interactive Wave Simulation of Wind Instruments Andrew Allen Nikunj Raghuvanshi Microsoft Research Figure 1: Wave fields for 2D wind instruments simulated in real-time on a graphics card. A few examples are shown, which are simplified virtual models of (a) trumpet, (b) clarinet, and (c) flute. Our interactive wave solver lets the user design and instantly perform such virtual instruments, promoting experimentation with novel designs. Dynamic changes such as opening and closing tone holes or manipulating valves automatically changes the resulting sound and radiation pattern.

  • FLUTE Care and Maintenance Avoid the Keys While Putting Together And
    FLUTE Care and Maintenance Avoid the keys while putting together and taking apart. If pads sound clicky or sticky, use a quality cleaner such as pad juice or some Yamaha Powder Paper. Only adjust Head Cork if you know what you are doing. All other adjustments are to be made by a qualified repair tech. NEVER leave your Flute on a chair or on your bed. Bent bodies are VERY EXPENSIVE to straighten out and somebody WILL sit on it! Do not use any grease or oil on the joints where it goes together. This only helps once and makes all future attempts even harder. Swab out after each use. A pad saver of high quality is fine to use. CLARINET Care and Maintenance Never clean your clarinet with alcohol. You may wipe down after each playing time with a polish cloth available at retail outlets or from me. Stay away from the edge of the pads. If you wipe away the skin, the pads will need replacing. Swab out the bore after playing, to keep the moisture away from the pads. You may purchase pad savers (fuzzy sticks) to use in the bore of the Clarinet. Do not use on wooden clarinets…only on plastic ones. You should clean the barrel, mouthpiece and bell section monthly with warm soapy water. Rinse well. This is ONLY for plastic Clarinets. Look at the instrument occasionally to be sure the screws are not working loose. Tighten loose screws enough to keep the key in place but not so tight to make it bind.

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.
