Bassoon

There isn't a single instrument that answers the question; the flute is part of the woodwind family so possible answers include clarinet, oboe, saxophone, tin whistle.

I'm pretty sure that ALL flutes, including piccolo, bass, and standard flutes (key of c) all have the same buttons anf fingerings...

if you want to know the number of keys, it depends I guess, because there are thetrill keys, and then some keys that go down when you press others... but if you count every single moving button on the flute, theres like 24?

The bassoon's weight is a byproduct of the materials it is made from. A good average value would be around 3.5Kg (around 7.5 pounds.) However, a thin-walled french bassoon made of a light wood with a minimum of keys will weigh much less than this, while a German bassoon made of dense wood and decked out with keys to go from low BBb into the stratosphere (thank you, Mr. Stravinsky) will weigh more.

However, the weight of the bassoon itself is almost immaterial. The normal and preferred way of holding the bassoon while playing is to use a belt or similar long strip of material with a hook on the end, which fits into a hole or ring at the base of the bassoon. The player sits on the belt, adjusting the bassoon's position until the reed sits right at mouth-level. Then, the bassoon is nearly entirely supported by the belt, and the player's hands are free to finger the instrument.

None-the-less, the bassoon can also be suspended from a neck-strap, like saxophones, using a loop which is often supplied on the metal band at the top of the boot joint (the lowest part of the bassoon), from which it is very nearly balanced. This is often used when the player is standing or (if brave) marching with the instrument. Then, the left hand contributes a little to the support of the bassoon.

Quite often, the case for the bassoon, complete with a small glass to hold water (to soak the reed) and a gaggle of tools for making and adjusting reeds, weighs more than the whole bassoon!

It is unclear who the original inventor is, since some details of history have been erased from our knowledge. For information concerning the bassoon and some of it's history, see the wikipedia.org article at:

woodwind instruments are a type of instrument. Woodwinds are the instruments that are usually played with a reed and is made of wood, like a clarinet, sax, bassoon, and flute(even though it isnt made of wood or has a reed) there are many others such as bass clarinet, tenor sax, contrabass clarinet, bari sax etc

Yes, you can get a scholarship for playing the oboe. Many colleges give scholarships for musicians and the schools are always in need for rare instruments like oboes, tubas, and bassoon, to name a few.

A bass drum is indeed considered a Percussion instrument both inside and outside a band. No matter where you place it, a band, marching band, Orchestra,etc., a bass drum will always be a percussion instrument.

Our band is pretty small but we have 2 bass clarinets so yeah, bass clarinets are in marching band.

Yes, they are in marching band. I have a marching band of 209 and we have 3 bass clarinet marchers. I will be marching next year. I currently play clarinet. But don't worry, when I was in 8th grade I didn't know that they were in marchin band.

The Proper name for the bass guitar is The Electric Bass.It has a closer relationship with the upright bass rather than the guitar.The first bass that was electrified, was an upright bass that was the size of a cello back in the early 1930's by Paul Tutmarc from Spokane ,Washington. He had taken a pickup made out of a telephone transducer and used the basstrings from a piano as strings for his electric bass. He had first used this pick up on guitars. He wanted to make it easier for the upright bass to be heard as many on that instrument had to play very hard to be heard without ampification, unless the bass could be mmicrophoned. In 1941, Paul reduced the size of the bass to make it easier to transport and store. It's design looked much like the electric basses that we play today.This bass was known as the Serenader and sold for 139 bucks back in the late 1940's it included a case. In 1951 Guitar maker Leo Fender invented the first successful electric bass known as the Precision Bass. The bass that really made it popular.During the fifties and early 60's the Upright bass was still the dominant bass in Pop music.The first Jazz bassist to play electric bass was Monk Montgomery. In 1963 Female bassist and Studio legend Carol Kaye picked up a Fender electric Bass and created a sound that became popualr on a many ahit record. James Jamerson also had a distinctive sound .Fender created a second sucessful bass the Jazz bass wich first debuted in 1960. Over the years Fender has kept these basses in production and makes many different models and configurations .Always craeting something new each year. The first bass to feature active electronics was the Alembic Bass the Creation of Ron Wickersham.Stanley Clarke, Phil Lesh and John Paul Jones really popularized the use of these basses. Stanley Still uses Alembics as his main basses after 37 years. The electric bass has evolved thru the years not olny by the many manufacturers of this instrument but also the players. Some are: Jaco pastorius, Larry Graham ( the creator fo the Slap technique on electric bass),Anthony Jackson ,Marcus Miller,Louis Johnson, Rocco Prestia, Bernard Edwards, Geddy Lee,Carol Kaye, Victor Wooten, Lincoln Goines , Mark King and many others.

A contrabassoon, also known as a double bassoon. It plays an octave lower than a regular bassoon. Hope this helped! xx

Typically the double bassoon (or contrabassoon) is given to the third or fourth chair bassoon, leaving the principal bassoon to play the 1st bassoon part and the 2nd chair bassoon to play the 2nd bassoon part. In some cases the double bassoon part is an auditioned spot, meaning that someone specifically auditioned for the double bassoon.

Saxophone is considered to be one of the easier wind instruments to learn. That doesn't mean it's easy, but with decent instruction and reasonable effort, you can learn to play simple melodies in a few weeks and play throughout the primary range of the sax in a year or so. There's always more you can learn, though, and that makes it fun. I've been playing for over twenty years, and I'm still betting better.

Well the bassoon has many names just like any instrument, and like many low-playing instruments, the bassoon in English has the word "bass" used in the name, but "bassoon" isn't the instruments first name. The first names of the bassoon were, Fag0tt, Fag0tt0, or Fag0t, depending on which language or region the printed music was made in.

In the oboe family:

Oboe d'Amore

English Horn

Basson

The Clarinet also uses a reed, but it is single and not double. Oboes play in C, as do flutes, but they don't have much more in common.

I think you are referring to the mouthpiece which is on every brass instrument.

The sound of the french horn can be altered by sticking your hand in the bell. The farther you put it in, the more muted it sounds, but it also makes it a little flat. Also, every french horn has a different sounds, so you can try a differnent one and it can be like a whole different instrument.

Yes it is and no it isn't.

While the term tenoroon has been applied to tenor or smaller bassoons it has also been applied, somewhat erroneously, to the bass oboe and to an organ stop.

Tenoroon is somewhat generic and in a modern context referrs to any of the smaller bassoons. In order to avoid ambiguity and to distinguish the smaller bassoons in F and G from those an octave higher than the regula bassoon, the term tenor bassoon is being applied to a professional model of tenoroon, currently built in F by Wolf.

Student models generally have 8 keys on the top back and 2 in front, as well as 8 keys on the bottom half (4 front and 4 back). It depends on the model. A Pro Line model would have 9 keys on the top back. So depending still on which model you are looking at, it would have 18 or 19 keys.

1854 By Flanzo El Tiere, Italy.
it originated in Europe in the 15th Century and was called a Bass Violin and many of them had only three strings. In later times some were converted into six strings

Some lower-sounding oboe/ double reed family members are the English Horn and Oboe d' amore. They are about a 1/3rd octave lower, larger, and deeper sounding, but still share the sound we all love.

The time it takes to make a jacket can vary significantly based on factors such as the complexity of the design, the materials used, and the manufacturing process. For a basic jacket, production might take a few hours to a couple of days, while more intricate designs or high-quality, handmade jackets could take several days to weeks to complete. Additionally, factors like sourcing materials and tailoring can influence the overall timeline.

30 seconds ------------------------- The first person to answer this doesn't know (obviously). It depends what type of animation (for example traditional animation, stop motion animation) and how fluent you want an animation to be. Also, you haven't defined what "how long it takes" means. A standard animation for a movie would take probably take approximately 360 frames. People also usually storyboard these animations first. I got 360 frames because 12 is the approximate standard form animating a movie. So 12 x 30 = 360.

Each frame takes time to draw, let alone the characters. So it would depend on how long it takes to draw a character and how long you would spend on the background.

But really, there are too many variables to actually state how long it takes for a thirty second animation to be made. -------------------------- Actually, for a stop motion animation, the standard fps setting is 24 fps for movies. A lot of hobby animators use 30 for a smoother animation, but convert it to 24 fps if it'll go onto a DVD. Only beginners should use 12 (if not even 15), but it should only be used to get used to the animations, and move up to 24 before making an actual video.

Since it takes 24 frames to do one second: 24*30=720. So it'll take 720 frames for a quality video. I would only recommend making tests if you want to use 12 fps, not a video though. You can time yourself and see how long it takes you to animate each frame, but if you run on a very rough estimate about 5-10 seconds a frame: 720*5=3600, 3600/60=60; 720*10=7200, 7200/60=120. So if it takes you 5-10 seconds to shoot a frame, that'll be about one to two hours of animating. But again, you have to time yourself and judge how fast you animate.

Take your time! This is an art of patience. If you think 7200 frames is bad, just think about the Nightmare Before Christmas! It's about 76 minutes long, at 24 fps, that equals out to about 109,440! To that number, 720 frames is pocket change, in a way of speaking. But just take your time, do the best you can, and don't get discouraged!
