What does articulation mean in musical terms?
The articulation marks in a musical score denotes that how notes should be played. They differ according to the instruments mostly with families they belong to. 'Legato' (smoothly), 'staccato' (short and detached) and 'tenuto' (hold for the full not value) are some of common articulations used in most instruments. 'Marcato' (marked) and 'martellato' (hammered) are frequent articulations among percussion instruments. 'Arco' (with the bow), 'pizzicato' (plucked) and 'con legno' (with wooden part of bow) are playing techniques exclusively for instruments in the string family. A popular technique for prepared tongue position in woodwind section is to indicate a syllable that indicates the same tongue placement.
How do woodwind instruments work?
Wood wind instruments work by making the lips purchase on a reed and making it vibrate. Clarinets and saxophones are single reeded. Oboes and bassoons are double reeded. With single reed instruments, the instrument is held by the upper teeth and the lower lip makes the reed vibrate. With double reed instruments, the double reed is held by the lips only, which make it vibrate. The 'lip holding' is called 'embouchure'. When learning to play the facial muscles about the mouth have to be used. Playing becomes more proficient as the facial muscles strengthen. All instruments have stops/valves on them to alter the note.
What group are the oboes?
AnswerYes, it is. It uses a reed in the mouth piece, that makes it a woodwind. The woodwinds are divided into to major groups, one is flutes and whistles, and the others are instruments with reeds. The instruments with reeds are further divided between those with a single reed, which includes clarinets and saxophones, and those with two, which includes oboes and bassoons.
How sound is produced on a brass instrument and how is different from woodwind?
In woodwind instruments like the saxophone, clarinet, bassoon etc. the sound is produced when the reed vibrates against the mouthpiece. Coupled with the shape, and material of the instrument it will produce a different timbre. Brass instruments are slightly different. With brass instruments like a trumpet, euphonium, tuba - there is no reed. Instead, the mouthpiece is a single fixture and works kind of like this **Note: I am a bassoonist, saxist, and pianist. I've never put my mouth on a brass mouthpiece so I'm sorry if it is vague. Brass players don't just blow into the instrument like woodwinds do, but they instead have to "buzz" the mouthpiece. Basically what that means is that they blow through their tightly pressed lips to make the "buzz". So the main reason why the sound is different in brass and woodwind instruments is because of the playing technique.
