UNIT 6 DAY 1 - Explicit, Implicit and Rubato Rhythms.There are three kinds of rhythms: Explicit, Implicit and Rubato.
* Explicit Rhythm: When the rhythm is loud and clear.
* Implicit Rhythm: When a piece of Music is rhythmic but there are no instruments playing the beat (like in a bass drum).
* Rubato Rhythm: When the beat is not fixed or can not be appreciated. Explicit Music works are usually of folk or popular character. In Classical Music, the beat is present, but it is not always the most important element. The Tempo Rubato can be found in the medieval plainchant and in some jazz improvisations or in relaxing music. UNIT 6 DAY 2 - Drums of Multiple Percussion Instrument (MPI): elements and history.Drums stands for Multiple Percussion Instrument (MPI is the acronym). It Consists of a series of Idiophones and Membranophones instruments. This condition is the reason that makes every drummer choose her of his kit or basic set, although there is a standard. Let's start presenting the Drums with some humor: Cymbals are Idiophones while the Bass Drum, Snare and Toms are Membranophones.
A standard Drum Kit is composed of a ride cymbal, one crash cymbal, one hi-hat, a bass drum or kick drum, a snare and three toms. This does not mean that every drummer kit is the same or that every drummer must choose the same basic set.
Funeral Band in New Orleans - notice that the musician that holds the bass drum also holds the cymbals You can also see your teacher presenting the Drums back in 2012! (Sorry, in Spanish only) UNIT 6 DAY 3 - Percussion Scores and Rhythm Patterns.The clef we use to write for percussion instruments consists of two parallel vertical lines.
Usually we employ a staff, but it is not strange that we find systems from one to four lines according to the needs of the one who writes the score.
Drum scores use staves. They must be accompanied by a code that lets us know what instrument refers to a particular "pitch".
Scores for undetermined pitch percussion are lines where the rhythmic figures are placed. ![]() The rhythmic pattern is a repetitive musical phrase in which the main thing is the rhythmic figuration, which is interpreted along the song and stops with what we call "breaks" which are sections of a few beats, usually paradiddling, and "fill in", which usually lasts one or two bars, separating each of the parts. UNIT 6 DAY 4 - Latin percussion.The orchestras of salsa, samba and Afro-Cuban Music have musicians that plays each instrument separatedly. The claves are two sticks, commonly from lignum, with which we play the basic rhythm of Caribbean music and part of the Latin American styles.. The conga is a type of elongated drum. The musician usually play two, even three of them. ![]() ![]() ![]() Images taken from Hanon Online, Andy's Words and Pictures, 123rf, Wikipedia (1, 2, 3), imgarcade, Hackea el Aula, O'Reilly, David Darling, David Wallace, Designinfographics, Metro, Tywi, Daily Mail, SoYouWanna, Steph Aaronson, Discard Studies, South by Sunset, Flickr, Kotaku, GagDonkey, QuieroDibujos, Rgbstock, Flute-a-bec, Bivem, En clave de música, IES Marqués de Santillana, Image and Art, Arte Creativo Total, Discapnet, Anonadatos, Ludoforum, Invited Life, Wikipedia, SmartArt Microsoft Office: Word 2007, blogtatuajes, forwallpaper, Earsinus,.Schollen Collection, Ancient Greek notation, Music of Yesterday, Wikipedia, Wikipedia, Smithsonian, Choirly, Wikipedia, OKNation, Medi-Music, Chmtl, All Music Sheet, White Hot, Moc, Mercado Libre, Learning Encounters, As Seen On The Internet, Valdosta, Lien Bui, Cosas sencillas, David Maestre, Britishkingdom's Blog, Sala de música, Unicentro, Coro Monumental de Guadalajara, La música es bella, Mediateca de EducaMadrid, RubyCliff, Christ Hind, Wikipedia, Music Zone,Guitar Forums, Euskomedia, |
