The harmonic series is which notes a brass player can play without using any valves. The notes are based on the major chord of the key the instrument is in. It's not all notes that are part of that chord. The lowest note is the key the instrument is in. The next is an octave up. The next is the top note of the chord, then the base note again, then the full chord is accesible. After that, the notes get closer and closer together.

Which device do brass players use in their instrument to dampen the sound?
Brass players use mutes to dampen the sound of their instruments.
A hollow, funnel-shaped piece of wood or plastic that brass players use to alter the tone of their instruments is called a?
That would be a mute,
What is the high pitched screech guitar players like Slipknot use called and how do you do it?
They're called pinch harmonics. You do a harmonic by holding down your note then picking, but as you pick follow through and just touch the string with your thumb, resulting in a harmonic. Then pitch bend it. By the way slipknot is bad.
What was Richard Wagner considered the most progressive composer of his day?
a. He combined choral music and orchestral music.b. He introduced the libretto to the operac. He advanced the harmonic idiom of music into new, exciting realms.d. He used the tala pulses in his orchestrations.
Do brass instruments all have reeds?
Brass instruments do not have reeds, some woodwind instruments do.

The sound of the music was very harmonic.

Why did they use brass shavings and not brass blocks in finding the composition of brass?
its easier and quicker for the zinc in the brass to react with the hydrochloric acid.
Why we use odd harmonic and do not use even harmonic?
That is not true. When you overdrive a valve triode you produce even harmonics.Aphex AudioXciter uses also only the even harmonics.
How do you make different notes on the french horn?
A musical note on any wind instrument is produced by a vibrating column of air inside a tube. Change the length of the vibrating column, and you change the note. There are different ways of changing the length of the tube: 1) Make the tube shorter by opening holes in it (what most woodwinds do). 2) Make the tube longer by sliding out an extension (what the trombone does) or opening a valve that re-routes the air through an extra piece of tubing (what the rest of the brass do). 3) Make the vibrating column inside the tube shorter by forcing it to kind of separate the air column into segments (e.g. dividing the air column into two segments, 2:1, makes an octave higher). The segmentations are predictable according to the harmonic series. Most woodwinds overblow at the first harmonic, the octave; most brass do several more harmonics above that (the horn tends to play very high on the harmonic series relative to the other brass, which makes it perhaps the most difficult to play). On a brass instrument such as horn, you buzz your lips at the right frequency to lock in the desired harmonic. The horn uses the 2nd and 3rd of these, but adds another unique method. By placing the hand into the bell, the player can micro-adjust the length of the air column and thus change the pitch. Before the invention of valves, in fact, the "natural horn" was played using only harmonics and hand-stopping; the wonderful horn concertos of Mozart, and even Brahms's op. 40 horn trio, were written for these instruments. Even after the invention of valves, horn players continue to use the hand in the bell to shape the pitch and tone color.
