The item that I plan to market is a customized pitch pipe for the band Pentatonix. A pitch pipe is a small device used to provide a pitch reference for musicians or singers. The common vocal pitch pipes are circular and made of metal, usually brass and are known as a free reed aerophone. This product is a great fit because Pentatonix is an a cappella group, so perfect pitch is the backbone of this group. This merchandise covers a serious note for those fans that love the band and can sing, and…

It was that time on a particular Wednesday, more specifically 2:30 pm to 4:20 pm; I sat in the lecture room at HKU preparing myself to pay full attention to Dr. Giorgio’s lecture. He stood in front of 200+ students and lectured us about “Seeing music”. As the lecture progressed to the topic about sexuality and music, he projected a YouTube video featuring the famous guitarist of the 1970s, Jimi Hendrix. The video was recorded at Miami in 1968, where Hendrix is performed one of his best-known…

The guitar solo took more articulation with the additional notes compared to the guitar rift. Legato definitely fits, the rift and the solo blend together appropriately. McJagger's vocals definitely add an unique accent. Harmony- The chords are in major during the whole lapse of the song. McJagger's vocals are also in major. Timbre- First and foremost, McJagger's voice strikes me at the end of the song. It's comical how he can create an authentic McJaccer monkey esque noise. The guitar rift…

married the steel-string guitar with a body constructed more like a cello, where the bridge exerts no torque on the top, only pressure straight down. This allows the top to vibrate more freely, and thus produce more volume. In the early 1920's designer Lloyd Loar joined Gibson, and refined the archtop "jazz" guitar into its now familiar form with f-holes, floating bridge and cello-type tailpiece.(3) The electric guitar was born when pickups were added to Hawaiian and "jazz" guitars in the late…

I saw it in the music shop window and I knew that it would be mine and only mine. I bought it and took it home. Billings would love it. My god. It was so beautiful, so sleek, so smooth. Its body was a glimmering gold and I could feel the keys push down gracefully with a satisfying plop! It was the most majestic thing I had ever seen and… Oh crap. I dropped it. Down it came with a crash. I realized that I wasn’t wearing a neck-strap. As I picked my 2,000 dollar alto saxophone, I saw that it had a…

Technical aspects of the Double Bass in changes Physical changes in the instrument This is still a debate on whether the base comes from the violin family or shrimp family (some research shows even family ties guitar all the time. The only thing we are sure the tool is still under development in relation to the time it was used in the music. The history of the base begins about the first half of the 16th century, based on the violin family.However the term "base" is not often used until the end…

Now a lot of people will automatically say the Electric guitar is the better choice for a beginner to learn on simply because it is thought to be the easiest to learn. Although that is true for the most part I say that the acoustic guitar is the better choice to be made. With learning on an acoustic the beginner will build up more strength in their fingers and hands. They will work harder to press down the strings with the Acoustic, unlike the Electric where it is easier to press down on the…

things with the instruments I currently play. Violin, piano, bass, and guitar are the instruments that I play. The one that I will be talking about most is bass because I spend the most time on it, and it is currently my favorite to play. This spring, I bought a bass guitar from a guy who lived in Wichita. When I did this, it opened up a lot of things in my bass playing. I went from only having a standup bass at school to having a guitar at home. That is when I started learning many new things. …
