Is a harmonica a brass instrument?
Well, hello there, friend! A harmonica is actually not a brass instrument. It belongs to the woodwind family because it produces sound by vibrating reeds when you blow air into it. Each instrument is unique and special in its own way, just like you are unique and special too. Keep exploring and creating beautiful music!
NO I My flute was that brand and it was good at first and it got bad REALLY fast and wouldn't play higher than f above the staff.
Yes. The Mendini flute is okay IF you are a beginner or just want to try the flute.
It is on a higher level than the Olds, Bundys, Artleys, etc. which were okay instruments if you doubled. The mendini is better not only because of its looks
which are available in 7 colors lacquered, but because the flutes are standard with
the Split-E key which is an additional charge at most other companies.
Some of the flutes may come and have a loose screw via shipping..The Mendini comes with a small screwdriver , white gloves, (some come with a ) metronome/tuner, cleaning stick and micro-fiber cleaning cloth. Normal care of the instrument, it will respond . I perform hard jazz with the Mendini, and it's held up
incredibly well.
Its not trying to be like my $3,000.00 instruments, but it's fun (blue) and its okay to have a choice to play a little funky flute at a party, or just buy one for a child who may, or may not want to play in the future.
Well, hello there! Trumpets work by buzzing your lips into the mouthpiece, creating vibrations that travel through the instrument and out the bell, producing beautiful sounds. It's all about finding the right balance of air and lip tension to create different notes and tones. Just remember, practice and patience are key to mastering the art of playing the trumpet. Happy painting, my friend!
Why do trombone have a high pitched sound?
A trombone typically produces low-pitched sounds. However, the player can manipulate the pitch by changing the length of the tube, which alters the harmonics produced. This allows the trombone to play both high and low notes.
What are the chemical composition of tuba-tuba?
Tuba-tuba, also known as Jatropha curcas, contains various chemical compounds such as curcin, phorbol esters, linoleic, oleic, and palmitic acids, as well as proteins and carbohydrates. However, it is important to note that tuba-tuba is toxic if ingested and should be handled with caution.
Do you mean the metal, brass, or the kinds of musical instruments called brass? The first metal alloy that was a kind of brass was probably invented about 5000 years ago. We don't have any way of knowing an exact year.
For brass musical instruments, the early Romans and Greeks had musical instruments made of brass, more than 2000 years ago. Again, we don't have any way to know an exact year.

What 3 things do all brass instruments have in common?
All brass instruments share three key characteristics: they are made of brass or a similar metal, they produce sound through the vibration of the player's lips in the mouthpiece, and they utilize a tubing system that can be altered in length, typically through valves or slides, to change pitch. Additionally, they are generally played with a similar embouchure technique, requiring players to adjust their lips to create different notes.
No one knows for certain as it is so old.
The oldest trumpets date back to 1500 B.C.E. and earlier. The bronze and silver trumpets from Tutankhamun's grave in Egypt, bronze lurs from Scandinavia, and metal trumpets from China date back to this period.[

What is the average professional tuba player's salary?
According to an article by Douglas Yeo (the Bass Trombonist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra:
"...The base scale pay for members of the top American orchestras (Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, New York, Philadelphia) is approximately $2000+/week (minimum guaranteed scale). These orchestras typically offer 10 weeks paid vacation, full medical and dental coverage, generous sick leave, a pension (after 30 years service or the "rule of 85" which provides a full pension to players whose age and years of service combined equal 85) of over $70,000/year, and many other excellent benefits. After passing an initial probationary period (of one to three years depending on the orchestra's policy), tenured members enjoy job protection and security as members of the American Federation of Musicians. Dismissal can only be made for cause which must be proven to an arbitration panel, often made up of peer members of the orchestra...Many orchestras make either audio or television recordings. Current AFM scale for a three hour recording session (symphonic scale) is approximately $350.00 not including yearly residual royalty payments made to the individual musicians."
What changes pitch on brass instruments?
For small intervals, there's usually a system of valves to alter the length of the resonating column of air and thus changing the pitch. For larger intervals, the player changes the shape of their lips in a specific way to create overtones. In some rarer cases, one hand may be inserted in the bell to lower the pitch by a semitone (see French horn, bukkehorn) or fingerholes used instead of valves (bukkehorn, zinck, serpent).
How does the French horn work?
wen u blow into it, the air goes through and it makes a sound. when you move your lips, the pitch changes. The rotors are attached to tubes that change the pitch. when you put down that finger, the rotor moves and opens the tube that changes the pitch. Your right hand can also change the tone and the pitch. if you put your hand farther into the bell, the pitch goes down and the tone gets more muffled. When your hand comes out more, the pitch goes up and the tone becomes less muffled
What special effect can the trombone play?
a trombone cansmear by trying to slur like a trumpet. this is done by trying to play a slurred note without making a small tounging in between the notes

Where did the trumpet get its name?
The word trumpet comes from the 14th century and is a variation of the word triumph. Throughout history, trumpets have been associated with three things: signaling armies, splendorous music for royalty, and in religious rituals. The main purpose of trumpets in the 14th century was as a signaling device to convey orders to soldiers in the midst of battle so that the army could triumph over their enemy.
What are brass instruments made of?
Online I found some info. "A brass instrument is a musical instrument whose tone is produced by vibration of the lips as the player blows into a tubular resonator. They are also called labrosones, literally meaning "lip-vibrated instruments" (Baines, 1993)." Hope this helps!
What horn has a short mouthpiece a flared bell and valves?
All of the common brass instruments of a band or orchestra, except the trombone, have relatively short mouthpieces, flared bells, and valves. This includes trumpets (and cornets), French horns, euphoniums (and baritone horns), and tubas. The trumpet is the smallest, so it has the shortest mouthpiece. The larger instruments have larger mouthpieces.
The bell of a French horn is more flared compared to its tubing before the bell, than other brass instruments. The Sousaphone, a large instrument that is a variation on the tuba but adapted for carrying in a marching band, also has a very large bell, much larger than a tuba's bell.
Most trombones have slides instead of valves, but there are some valve trombones.
Bugles, natural horns, and older horns that aren't in common use any more, such as the ophicleide, don't have valves, although they have mouthpieces similar to the modern brass instruments, and flared bells.
How is the sound produced in the sousaphone?
The sound of any brass instrument starts with buzzing your lips into a mouthpiece, which agitates the column of air inside the tube that makes up the instrument, causing vibrations in that air column which travel through the outside air as sound waves.
By buzzing your lips faster, you can force multiple waves inside the tube, so that (for example) two equal waves are occupying the tube instead of just one. Since this means twice as many waves are produced in the same amount of time, you have a higher frequency--thus a higher pitch (an octave higher, to be exact). There is a mathematical formula called the harmonic series that can plot the different frequencies (notes) that can be produced by this "overblowing" method.
The other way you change pitch on a brass instrument is by changing the length of the tube--shorter air column, higher pitch; longer air column, lower pitch. Trombones do this the easy way--they have a slide which, the further you push it out, the longer the tube, thus the lower the pitch. This wouldn't be very practical for a tuba or sousaphone (though it would be fun to watch), so instead they have valves (usually three on a sousaphone) that redirect the airflow through extra bits of tubing to make the air column longer and thus lower the pitch.
Between the two--changing the speed of lip-buzzing, and using valves (or a slide) to change the length of the tube--the brass instruments are able to cover all the notes of the chromatic scale.
