Renaissance flutes The renaissance flute, the type of instrument used in Europe from roughly 1500 to 1650 and later, was designed to blend well; it was often played with other flutes in a consort, or perhaps with voices or other soft instruments. Yet it can be seen in medium sized and large ensembles, where it presumably played in its high range. It also had military uses, though it is quite likely that the instruments so used may have been of a somewhat different design, perhaps more fife-like. Shown below are three renaissance flutes by modern makers. The first is after flutes stamped with a trefoil in Verona and is at the original pitch of A=408; the second is modeled on instruments in Brussels, but made at A=440 for the convenience of modern players; the third is a copy of a flute by Rafi and is at the original pitch of A=388. The renaissance flute is accoustically quite different from six-hole flutes from other traditions and parts of the world. It has a narrow cylindrical bore, and small finger holes and embouchure. This makes the instrument tend to be somewhat quiet and a bit sluggish in the lowest octave, but it is responsive and can be played lightly and delicately in its highest notes. The combination of narrow cylindrical bore and small holes also greatly affects the fingering and resulting sound (see below).

FAQ Welcome to Selmer.com Always committed to serving the needs of students, music educators, amateurs, and professionals, Selmer has grown steadily over the years, becoming the industry leader recognized for craftsmanship and quality. Our story is both unique and fascinating. The Selmer family traces its roots back to the 18th century rural Lorraine region of France with Johannes Jacobus Zelmer. Enlisting in the French army provided a means of moving families from the country to the city. For three generations Zelmer men served in the same regiment, while the boys, too young to be soldiers, played in the band. Jean-Jacques Selmer (son of Johannes Jacobus), in addition to changing the spelling of the family name, ascended to the rank of drum major. The military afforded great opportunities for education and travel. When Charles-Frederic Selmer (son of Jean-Jacques) died in 1878 he left sixteen children, five surviving to adulthood. Of these, Henri and Alexandre graduated from the Paris conservatory as accomplished clarinetists. Henri went on to perform in the famed Garde Republicaine band and the Opera Comique. By the early 1900s Henri had opened shop at Place Dancourt in Paris to meet the demand for his handmade reeds and mouthpieces. Soon repair work and customizing led to the manufacturing of clarinets.

130. Woodwind Instruments Five families of instruments make up the woodwind section flute, clarinet, Books About Woodwind instruments. The Flute Player La Flautista by Robin http://www.sbgmusic.com/html/teacher/reference/instruments/woodwind.html

Woodwind Instruments In the orchestras of Western art music, there are four main groups of instruments: strings, percussion, brass, and woodwinds. Woodwinds often play together with all the other instruments of the orchestra, but they also get to play solos in the orchestra, unlike most of the string players. Concert bands have woodwinds, brass, and percussion only, no strings. Most woodwind instruments are tubes that are (or were long ago) made from wood, and players blow their "wind," or breath, into them to make sounds. Some woodwinds are conical, or cone-shaped—the tube starts small and gets bigger along the way to the end. Other woodwinds are cylindrical, or cylinder-shaped—the size of the tube stays about the same from one end to the other, like a paper-towel tube. Woodwind instruments make sounds in different ways. Five families of instruments make up the woodwind section: flute, clarinet, saxophone, oboe, and bassoon. Here is a look at each family and how its instruments produce sound. The Flute Family People have enjoyed playing the flute for at least 5,000 years. Most modern flutes are made of metal because metal helps them to sound louder in today’s big concert halls. Sound is produced on a flute the same way it is on a whistle. When the player’s breath hits the hole on the top of the mouthpiece of the flute, the air stream splits in two and makes a whistling sound. Flute players need to be able to hold a lot of air in their lungs. They also need to control the escape of all that air. This is called "breath control." It takes good breath control to play the flute.

Drew University Department of Music Beyond Programs Go To Drew University Department of Music The Instruments The Family of Flutes In his review, Anthony Aibel wrote of the contrabass flute, "Ricky Lombardo's Renaissance for a New Millennium included a contrabass flute of all things, and it was the most cumbersome and bizarre thing you could imagine at a flute concert. But it added a deal of color to the group's sound as it had the eerie combination of a low organ stop and a bass clarinet." The Flute The Piccolo The Piccolo is about half the size of the flute, and sounds an octave higher. Its highest notes correspond to the top notes of a piano. Piccolos can be made of silver or different types of wood, most often grenadilla. Mechanically simpler than the flute, the piccolo has fewer keys, and possesses a range of just under three octaves. Composers employ it to extend the range of the flute, to color the top octaves of an ensemble, and to execute virtuosic passages. Occasionally, as in scores of Shostakovich and Prokofiev, the piccolo assumes an important lyric role. Its low register can be quite haunting and even spooky. The Alto Flute Le Sacre du Printemps both of which contain beautiful passages for the alto flute. In a flute ensemble, its roles are quite varied. The alto flutist doubles the bass line, the piccolo part, or any flute part, as well as assert important solo lines.
