Instruments

How many different kinds of instruments can you think of?

Melophone

trumpet harp guitar (ACCOUSTIC)

Saxophone bass guitar electric guitar drums

Tenor sax washtub bass violin cello

Piano voice windpipes harmonica

Washboard bugle bagpipes spoons

Triangle clarinet cymbals banjo

Trombone tuba keyboard bells

Flute pipe organ piccolo snare drum

Bass drum coronet bongos rain sticks

Maracas castanets rhythm stick rattlesSlide2

Early types of instruments:

These instruments date back to 1000 – 1200 B.C.

Pan Flute Pipes

Lute – like a guitar and used by singers

Various flutes or recorders

Harpsichord - like a piano

Double Harp – 2 sets of strings

Fiddle Slide3

Music of the Middle Ages using many of the instruments shown.

Middle Ages Music and ImagesSlide4

As time went on instruments developed more and more.

In the Classical time period the instruments become a little more refined.

Slightly more modern piano

More sophisticated flutes.

Brass instruments were

also improved upon.Slide5

Classical Era Instrumental Music - Orchestra and piano solo

Mozart Piano ConcertoSlide6

Instrument Families

Instruments are grouped into families of similar sound or method of playing.

For example: Percussion instruments are struck,

where woodwinds are blown into through a reed.

There are 5 main families of instruments

* Strings

*Woodwinds

*Brass

*Percussion

*KeyboardsSlide7

STRING FAMILY

String instruments produce sound through the vibrating of a string. String instruments can be plucked or bowed.

Name some string Instruments:

violin

double bass

Ukulele

viola

guitar

mandolin

cello

banjo

harp

electric bassSlide8

STRING FAMILYSlide9

STRING FAMILY

Classical String Instruments: Typically used in orchestral music

Violin – the smallest and highest pitched

Viola – slightly larger than a violin and a little

lower in pitch.

Cello – large and required the instrumentalist

to be seated to play. The pitch is even

lowerDouble Bass- the lowest pitch of the classical

string instruments, you must stand while playing the double bass

Trivia question:

Which classical string instrument is also sometimes used in a Jazz Ensemble?

Double BassSlide10

String Quartet

String quartets were very popular during the time of Mozart

String quartets consisted of 2 violins, 1 viola, and 1 cello

WOODWIND FAMILY

A woodwind instrument produces sound when the player blows air against a sharp edge or through a reed, causing the air within its resonator (usually a column of air) to vibrate. Most of these instruments are made of wood but can be made of other materials, such as metals or plastics.

Single reeds are used for clarinets and saxophones

There are some instruments in the woodwind family

that do not use a reed. Can you guess which one?Slide14

WOODWINDS

Some woodwind instruments have double reeds

Oboe

Bassoon

ContrabassoonSlide15

WOODWINDS

Saxophone Family

Like the Classical String Instruments there are also varying pitched saxophones.

Soprano Saxophone

Alto Saxophone

Tenor Saxophone

Baritone SaxophoneSlide16

WOODWINDS

Flute Family

Although we are used to seeing two types of flutes, there are many different sized of flutes. The size differences change the high or low sounds of the instruments.

Piccolo- the highest sounding flute

Standard flute – mid to high range

Alto flute – lower in sound and larger

Bass flute – is the lowest and largest of the flutesSlide17

BRASS

A brass instrument is a musical instrument whose sound is produced by vibration of air in a tubular resonator in sympathy with the vibration of the player's lips.

BRASS

Low Brass Instruments

Tuba – lowest sound

Euphonium –

slightly higher sound

Baritone – the highest

of the low brass

Trombone – like the baritone, it’s the highest of the low brass instrumentsSlide20

BRASS

High brass instruments

Standard Trumpet

mid-high range

Piccolo trumpet

highest range

Flugelhorn

mid-low range

French horn

mid-low rangeSlide21

BRASS

How do they work?

The player buzzes air into the mouthpiece and pushes on valves to change the pitch.

The more tubing, the lower the sound. The smaller the tubing, the higher the sound.

Each brass instrument has it’s own mouthpiece.Slide22

BRASS

Valves vs. Slides

Almost all Brass instruments use valves to change pitch, but some use a slide.

BRASS

Brass Quintets

A Brass Quintet consists of 2 trumpets, 1 french horn, 1 trombone, and 1 tuba

PERCUSSION

A percussion instrument is any object which produces a sound when hit with an implement or when it is shaken, rubbed, scraped, or otherwise acted upon in a way that sets the object into vibration. Slide27

PERCUSSION

Percussion instruments vary in size, style, colors, and material. Slide28

PERCUSSION

Percussion instruments are classified into 4 major areas.

Idiophone – sound is made through vibrations of the entire body.

Membranophone – sound is made when the membrane head is struck.

Chordophone – a pitched sound is made when struck.

Aerophone – sound is made when air is blown through.Slide29

PERCUSSION

Idiophones and Membranophones are the most common types of percussion instruments used.

IdiophonesSlide30

PERCUSSION

Membranophone

The skin stretched over the head of a drum is called a membrane.

This is what vibrates to make the sound.Slide31

PERCUSSION

Mallets are used to strike a percussion instrument, either idiophone or membranophone

There are soft mallets

There are hard mallets

Soft mallets typically have felt or yarn to make the contact softer

Hard mallets are typically made of wood or hard plastic. Drum sticks are like mallets, they are hard wood.Slide32

KEYBOARDS

A keyboard instrument is any musical instrument played using a musical keyboard. The most common of these is the piano. Other widely used keyboard instruments include organs of various types as well as other mechanical, electromechanical and electronic instrumentsSlide37

KEYBOARDS

Keyboard instruments have a standard keyboard of white and black keys for each note on the staff.

There are differences between the keyboard instruments and how the sound is produced.

For example, a piano has hammers.

An organ uses air pumped through pipes.Slide38

KEYBOARDS

Inside of the piano

Just like all instruments, the shorter and thinner strings are the higher pitches.

The thicker and longer strings are the lower sounds.

The piano key is pressed and a hammer in the inside is moved forward or down to hit the string.Slide39

KEYBOARDS

Organs and how they work.

An organ uses air through pipes to make sound.

When a key is pressed, it releases air into the pipe.Slide40

KEYBOARDS

The first organs had to have air pumped into them.

It was the responsibility of the performer to pump air into it with their feet.Slide41
