Bass Clarinet

Bass Clarinet

The bass clarinet is a musical instrument of the clarinet family. Like the more common soprano B♭ clarinet, it is usually pitched in B♭ (meaning it is a transposing instrument on which a written C sounds as B♭), but it plays notes an octave below the soprano B♭ clarinet. Bass clarinets in other keys, notably C and A, also exist, but are very rare (in contrast to the regular A clarinet, which is quite common in classical music). Bass clarinets regularly perform in orchestras, wind ensembles/concert bands, occasionally in marching bands, and play an occasional solo role in contemporary music and jazz in particular.

Transversal Flute

Transversal Flute

 A transverse flute or side-blown flute is a flute which is held horizontally when played. The player blows across the embouchure hole, in a directionperpendicular to the flute's body length.

Transverse flutes include the Western classical flutes, the Indian classical flutes (the bansuri and the venu), the Chinese dizi, the Western fife, a number of Japanese fue, and Korean flutes such as Daegeum, Junggeumand Sogeum.

 

ELETRIC GUITAR

Eletric Guitar

An electric guitar is a fretted string instrument that uses a pickup to convert the vibration of its strings—which are typically made of metal, and which occurs when a guitarist strums, plucks orfingerpicks the strings—into electrical impulses. The vibrations of the strings are sensed by apickup, of which the most common type is the magnetic pickup, which uses the principle of directelectromagnetic induction.

Often the signal is modified using effects such as reverb and distortion and "overdrive", with the latter being a key element of the sound of the electric guitar as it is used in blues and rock music.

Invented in 1931, the amplified electric guitar was adopted by jazz guitarists, who sought to be able to be heard in large big band ensembles. Early proponents of the electric guitar on record included Les Paul, Lonnie Johnson, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, T-Bone Walker, and Charlie Christian. During the 1950s and 1960s, the electric guitar became the most important instrument in pop music.

Electric guitar design and construction vary greatly in the shape of the body and the configuration of the neck, bridge, and pickups. Guitars have a fixed bridge or a spring-loaded hinged bridge that lets players bend notes or chords up or down in pitch or perform vibrato effects. The sound of a guitar can be modified by new playing techniques such as string bending, tapping,hammering on, using audio feedback, or slide guitar playing.

DRUM

Drum

The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachsclassification system, it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane, called adrumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a drum stick, to produce sound. There is usually a resonance head on the underside of the drum, typically tuned to a slightly lower pitch than the top drumhead. Other techniques have been used to cause drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll. Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually unchanged for thousands of years. 

Drums may be played individually, with the player using a single drum, and some drums such as thedjembe are almost always played in this way. Others are normally played in a set of two or more, all played by the one player, such as bongo drums and timpani. A number of different drums together with cymbals form the basic modern drum kit.

CLARINET

CLARINET

The clarinet is a musical instrument consisting of a cylindrical tube, usually wooden (for models of other materials), with a conical nozzle of a single Reed and braces (metal rods connected the caps to reach holes to which the fingers do not come naturally). Has four records: serious, medium, sharp and superagudo. Who plays the clarinet is called a clarinetist.

History:

The clarinet descends from the chalumeau, an instrument popular in France at least since the middle ages. In 1690, Johann Christoph Denner, German charamelista, added to its Shawm a key for the thumb of the left hand, so that he could play in an opening that brought him more sonic possibilities. Thus arose the contemporary clarinet. Introduced in orchestras in 1750, was one of the last wind instruments incorporated into modern orchestral training. The clarinet is used even today in the largest orchestras in the world. Is an instrument used in Brazil.
