The flute is perhaps the oldest musical instrument, other than the human voice itself. There are very many flutes, both traversely blown and end-blown "fipple" flutes, currently produced which are not built on the Boehm model. The fingering system for the saxophone closely resembles the Boehm system.
The British pianist Tobias Matthay wrote a small book Principles of Fingering (ISBN 0900180420). In 1971 Julien Musafia published his book "The Art of Fingering in Piano Playing" (M.C.A., New York, N.Y., 90 pages). [3] The book includes musical examples mostly from the Beethoven's Violin and Piano Sonatas and from the Preludes and Fugues of ...
Next, an articulated C sharp’/G sharp’’ key was added; permitting a B/C sharp’ and F sharp’’/G sharp’’ trill to be made in nearly perfect pitch with a much simpler fingering pattern. A low E flat key was also added because it is a note that did not exist on previous clarinets and it is required by some composers.
A careful examination of the flute fingering for the notes D ♯ 6 through G ♯ 6 reveals that they are actually a combination of third and fourth harmonic fingerings. For example, the D ♯ fingering is like the low D ♯ 4 with the addition of the G ♯ key vented, for which D ♯ 6 is the third harmonic.
The csakan (from Hung. csákány 'pickaxe'), also known by the recorder's old French name flute douce, was a duct flute in the shape of a walking stick or oboe popular in Vienna from about 1800 to the 1840s. The csakan was played using the fingerings of a recorder in C, and was typically pitched in A ♭ or G
A 1.8 shakuhachi produces D4 (D above Middle C, 293.66 Hz) as its fundamental—the lowest note it produces with all five finger holes covered, and a normal blowing angle. In contrast, a 2.4 shakuhachi has a fundamental of A3 (A below Middle C, 220 Hz). As the length increases, the spacing of the finger holes also increases, stretching both ...
Parts of a flute. The gizmo key is illustrated in red.. The gizmo key is a key commonly found on the B foot joint of certain models of flute.It closes the low B tone hole without closing the low C tone hole or the low C ♯ tone hole, which is intended to facilitate the performance of the fourth octave C.
C-sharp major, the enharmonic equivalent to D-flat major, has seven sharps, whereas D-flat major only has five flats; thus D-flat major is often used as the parallel major for C-sharp minor. (The same enharmonic situation occurs with the keys of A-flat major and G-sharp minor, and to some extent, with the keys of G-flat major and F-sharp minor).
