Brass Instruments

Of those two choices, the horn is the higher-pitched instrument.

Brass instruments do not have reeds, some woodwind instruments do.

No, the clarinet is a woodwind instrument. A clarinet uses a reed to produce sound instead of using a mouthpiece and the player's embouchure to produce sound like brass instruments do.

The 12 C has a smaller cup, rim, and narrower bore. It's for beginners or jazz players. The 6.5 AL is larger, deeper and with a bigger bore. It gives a darker sound but requires more skill in the high register. It's used more in classical music by intermediate players. Professional symphony players go even bigger, to the 5 GS or a comparable mouthpiece (I use a Schilke 51).

Tuba scales fingering are scales for given valves in Tuba.

This is a nonsense question. The trombone is a brass instrument, meaning that since you blow air into it and buzz your lips to make the sound, you don't have any strings to worry about. One could, with the same amount of justification, ask about the embouchure or drumsticks needed to play an electric guitar or piano.

Brass is an alloy of two non-ferrous metals copper and zinc

Possible to build, yes. Possible to play, probably not.

Trombones don't have fingerings because they don't have valves. Instead, they have slide positions. The positions for the B major scale, starting on a 2nd line B and ascending are 7, 5, 3, 2, 5, 3, 1, 4.

You can either press down or release valves , or you can adjust the slide on a trombone . You also can adjust the 'airspeed' to change the pitch without changing the valves or slide

No. Membranophones are drums, with a skin or drum head tightened over a frame.

Look at the volume of a tuba--it takes gallons upon gallons of air just to fill it up! Since it's the biggest, it just plain takes more air.

Also, because of its huge mouthpiece size and its wider pipes, there is very little air resistance. That's why a tuba player's poor lungs have to keep pumping out the air so fast.

The tubing wraps around the way it does because if it was all one straight line, the horns would be too long to play.

Two, as far as i know. the first was written quite early in his career, and the second around 1945. Both are quite commonly played, but fairly challenging, particularly the second.

If you are still in school, you can sometimes borrow music from your school's music library. Many schools have Star Wars songs on file, since they are pretty popular. Some public libraries also have books of music that you can check out.

Keep in mind that most Star Wars sheet music is going to be copyrighted, so you have to be careful not to download illegally from many of the sites that offer it.

actually, a really good, brand new bach mellophone (best type) would only cost about a thousand dollars. lesser quality ones would cost less based on the brand of instrument that you wish to buy

Try this, type in on youtube all of lights trombone and see if that helps if not, ask the question again and i will ask my music teacher if he knows where too get the music (if you can read music if not, i will tell you which slide positions they are.

Most percussion and string instruments operate of vibrations to produce sound. Drum heads, xylophone bars, strings and reeds all vibrate on instruments that use them to produce sound.

If it's in treble clef then it should be the same as any other treble clef part. top to bottom the notes are f,e,d,c,b,a,g,f,e

The reason is because the sound is created by different means and materials. On a guitar, it's a vibrating string. With trumpet, the player's lips buzz into a mouthpiece and cause a tone to pass through the instrument.

Yes. There would often be two horns and two trumpets. Trombones were added in the late Classical period. The tuba wasn't invented until the 1840s, well into the Romantic era.

It's fine for any brass instrument to be exposed to frigid temperatures. However, if the instrument is played while cold, the tone will be extremely flat. To accommodate for the flatness in tone, move your tuning slide in until the instrument is warmed up.
