The Wonders of Woodwind Instruments
This type of instrument is usually a tube that makes a sound when air is blown through it. Some of these are played by the musician blowing air directly into the tube through the mouthpiece, such as when playing the saxophone, while others only require the musician to blow air over the mouthpiece, such as when playing the flute. The length of the tube is what determines the pitch of the sound the instrument will make, as does the covering of certain holes that have been drilled into the tube. The wind instrument has been around for quite a long time and has become more complex with time. Originally starting out as a small wooden tube with a few holes drilled into it, many wind instruments today have keys that cover different holes when pressed and many are made out of metal, such as brass.
There are now many different types of wind instruments a person can choose from. Some are brass wind instruments, some are wood wind instruments and all create a unique sound that appeals to different people. Some people are attracted to the deep but delicate sound of the oboe, some to the slightly raspy but strong sound of the saxophone, others to the bold sound of the trumpet and others to the light and delicate sound of the smaller flutes. All these different sounds and what about them attracts people is what often determines what an individual will want to play.
To play a musical instrument, to enjoy playing it and to practice it, it tends to help when a person can enjoy the sound and familiarize himself to it. Unlike the string instruments, or some percussion instruments, many wind instruments don't require as much tuning, if even necessary. There are many that don't require tuning at all, though the more complex wind instruments that have keys may require some adjustments to the keys.
This particular group of instruments is also seen as instruments that are a little easier to learn and play. While this might be true, they do offer their own challenge. Many of these instruments require good posture and good strong lungs to be able to introduce enough air into the instrument in order to maintain control of the air flow as well as to produce the sound that is required. A tuba, for example, requires a lot of air, but it also requires good control of the air the musician blows into it. Otherwise, the desired sound will not be created.
Some wind instruments may not require as much air, but someone who has weaker lungs, such as someone inflicted with a condition such as asthma, a wind instrument may not be a good choice. However, someone who wishes to play a wind instrument and is given the opportunity to do so, the activity can be fulfilling. These are great instruments to play when looking for a hobby and not looking for something too complicated. There are many simpler wind instruments to choose from that emit beautiful sounds when played right.

Gaburo: Five Works for Voices, Instruments, and Electronics List Price: $17.99 Sale Price: $11.05 Used From: $9.95 Average Rating:  |
|
Kenneth Gaburo (1926-1993) composed works for instruments, voices, electronics, multi-media, theater, and a variety of other resources. Foremost among his many interests was a concern with the voice and with language—how we shape language and how we are shaped by it—and with making works that existed somewhere between the boundaries of music and language. Of the works on this CD, three are intensely concerned with what Gaburo termed “Compositional Linguistics” (Antiphony III, Antiphony IV, and Mouth-Piece), while concerns with balance and perceptual edges seem to be his foremost concern in the other two [String Quartet in One Movement and The Flow of (u)]. In Antiphony IV (1967), for three instruments and two-channel tape, the two channels are literally separate—vocal sounds (each phoneme, in order, of the source poem) on the left channel, and electronic sounds on the right channel, with the instruments in the middle. Instrumental timbres relate to vocal phonemes; electronic splats are contrasted with delicate synthetic choirs assembled from recordings of individual phonemes; tremolos, flutters, and waverings alternate among recorded voice, electronics, and instrumental sounds. String Quartet (1956) was written just after Gaburo had returned from Rome, where he studied with Goffredo Petrassi, and the quartet is dedicated to him. It's a passionate, driving piece, where an intense concern for the quality of line is manifest in every gesture. In Mouth-Piece (1970) the trumpeter attempts to present six contrapuntal lines simultaneously and to maintain a sense of coherent timbral identity with each. Unlike most trumpet music, where the phoneme “t” or “k” is used to articulate the trumpet, here the trumpet is used as a filter for every phoneme the voice is capable of generating. It is an amazing exposition of vocal sounds and trumpet virtuosity. For Antiphony III (1962), for sixteen voices and electronics, a poem by Virginia Hommel again provides the basis. Here, however, it is articulated contrapuntally, one word at a time, by both the chorus and the tape. Each word is clearly heard, sometimes spoken, sometimes whispered, sometimes shouted, sometimes electronically modified on the tape, in the order presented in the poem. The Flow of (u) (1974) consists of one note sung by three singers for twenty-three minutes. Here, focus is even more intense, and the attention to dynamic shaping given to the lines in the 1956 Stri! ng Quartet is here transferred to the micro-level, and worked on with the singers in an “oral tradition” manner. |

Like the other Asymmetric mouthpieces, the throat is open (.150") for a bigger sound, but not to the point of adversely affecting endurance or intonation. Additionally, the cup and backbore have been balanced. This is a trumpet mouthpiece of choice for all-around applications. |
