Woodwind instrument

Have you ever wanted to play the most notable instrument in a band, or have the glory of being one of the most original instruments to this day? If so, the tenor saxophone is perfect for you! The tenor saxophone is a woodwind instrument that is very outstanding in jazz musical groups and is also one of the most important sounds in a concert or marching band because it plays the inner harmony parts or doubles the melodic lines in a musical piece. The Tenor is pitched in B flat and is larger and…

side and the orchestra on my right side. They both had on a white shirt and black slacks. There was a podium right between the band and the orchestra. The place was filled with lots of people, who were there to enjoy the beautiful sound of these instruments. From where i was sitting, on my right i could see people who came late and sat on the lawn it was a very nice day. The weather was just perfect not too hot or cold, it was just exactly right with a bit of breeze. One of the conductor named…

blue, people have and will constantly fall in and out of love, the fear of the unknown has been experienced by many, and many more will experience such a feeling, and an orchestra has always been seated that way it has - string instruments in the front with brass, woodwinds, and percussion in the back. Various things that function in a certain way, and continue to function in that certain way, grow to become the norm accepted by many over the years that pass. We get so used to the way everyday…

It was not too long ago that I started listening to the music of Beethoven out of interest. I had always dreamed of organizing my own symphony, making each and every piece with the technical mastery of that of the most incredible composers like him. When it came to portraying serious emotions such as anger, frustration or even sorrow; few could contest Beethoven. For this assignment, I decided to go with one of my favourite pieces of his: Symphony No. 7. Focusing on the second movement, before…

I attended the MTSUU Jazz Artist Series at MTSU on Thursday, October 20, 2016 at 7:30 pm. The instrument amount was varied, but the expected Jazz instruments were all there: stand-up bass, piano, horn section, drums, etc. All of the woodwind players played different instruments throughout each piece. It was held in the T. Earl Hinton Music Hall in the Wright Music Building. Around 130 people were there. I never really know what to expect from school performances. I have never been to a…

Since it is a jazz orchestra, the genre being played for this specific concert and with this specific group was Jazz song. It also included many solo instrument pieces within the concert while the piano and drums kept the beat, with piano dynamics, by playing “background music”. This didn’t take away from the solos being played by specific instruments and band members but added to them to keep it exciting and appealing, as it would not be conveyed in the best way if it was just only the solo…

do homework. I want to become a doctor or an engineer in the future, but continue playing my instruments. Last year I used the money for many things. I was able to buy my cello which allowed me to continue to…

marching band and drum corp. The section, if played correctly can blend perfectly together. Each instrument has its own unique history and has evolved from their ancestors into almost a completely different instrument. From being used for religious purposes to signaling or provoking fear into enemies eyes, the instruments have evolved into the beautiful yet powerful sounding instruments today. Brass instruments have vastly different histories and origins which have evolved to work perfectly…

if it would incorporated some tradition aspect of music such as instrument or some melody that it could been enjoyable but really felt like a bunch of noise put together. John…
