1 00:00:01,070 --> 00:00:04,190 Good morning, today we are going to learn about the wind instruments 2 00:00:05,309 --> 00:00:11,949 and we are going to study the wind family of instruments and their function in the symphony 3 00:00:11,949 --> 00:00:18,350 orchestra. The objectives that we have will be learn about the characteristics of this instrument, 4 00:00:18,350 --> 00:00:23,710 study the history of this instrument and listening the differentiation about this instrument. So we 5 00:00:23,710 --> 00:00:28,350 are going to start with the types of instruments and then the characteristics and the listening. 6 00:00:28,350 --> 00:00:36,869 We are going to learn how to start with the wind instruments that are aerophones and they 7 00:00:36,869 --> 00:00:42,789 make the sound by the vibration of an air column enclosed within a tube. 8 00:00:42,789 --> 00:00:48,130 These tubes can have several holes, by opening and closing the tubes different notes can 9 00:00:48,130 --> 00:00:49,130 be obtained. 10 00:00:49,130 --> 00:00:55,130 Rarely blowing into a wind instrument won't make it sound as this technique is required 11 00:00:55,130 --> 00:00:56,509 for each one. 12 00:00:56,509 --> 00:01:07,760 instruments are divided into sub-families that are woodwind and brass. In the woodwind we have 13 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:14,719 several instruments that will be the bassoon, the double bassoon, the english horn, the clarinet, 14 00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:20,879 bass clarinet, the oboe, the recorder, the saxophone, the piccolo and the flute. And they 15 00:01:20,879 --> 00:01:28,079 were originally made of wood. Nowadays some of them are made of metal, like the flute. All of 16 00:01:28,079 --> 00:01:34,000 the woodwind have a gentle expressive sound. There are three types of woodwind according 17 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,400 to their invocure. The eighths plough, such as the recorder of the flute, the single reed, 18 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:46,560 such as the saxophone and the clarinet, and the double reed, such as the oboe and the bassoon. 19 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:58,719 Here we have a video about these instruments. Here we have the brass, and the brass 20 00:01:58,719 --> 00:02:09,520 are made of metal and it has a capsaicin mouthpiece also made of brass. This sound 21 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:15,280 is bright and powerful. Most of them have valves to get different notes. The trombone does not 22 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:23,919 have valves but it has a sliding tube which changes the length of the instrument. Here we 23 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:29,199 have the trumpet the trombone the French horn and the tuba here we have an 24 00:02:29,199 --> 00:02:35,080 example of the mouthpiece and the ball here in the trumpet here as well we have 25 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:44,389 another explanation of these instruments and now we are going to listen in to 26 00:02:44,389 --> 00:02:49,189 make a listen out for instrument of the woodwind and for instrument of the brass 27 00:02:49,189 --> 00:02:54,229 the woodwind we are going to listen the flute the oboe the clarinet and the 28 00:02:54,229 --> 00:02:59,150 bassoon and in the brass we are going to listen the trumpet the French horn the 29 00:02:59,150 --> 00:03:07,669 trombone tuba then we are going to check it and thank you for all for your 30 00:03:07,669 --> 00:03:10,210 attention
