The characteristics of the trumpet, what role does it play in the band

The trumpet plays a key role in the orchestra, its tone is bright and loud, very sharp, and it is often responsible for the melodic part or the high-pitched rhythm, which can play both uplifting melodies and lyrical passages. It is commonly used in marching bands, orchestras, wind ensembles, jazz bands, or jazz in general.

Trumpet is known as the king of high instruments, its timbre is generous and bright, gorgeous and bright, and it is an indispensable element in orchestral, jazz, and wind music.

In the orchestra, the trumpet mainly serves as the treble part, which has a better expression effect on some close-up lyricism or tragedy.

In jazz bands, trumpets are mostly found in interludes or some modifiers are played in the middle of the piece to achieve a delicate effect.

The trumpet is a brass instrument characterized by a strong, bright and sharp tone, as well as a sense of brilliance. The timbre of the trumpet can play both a loud horn sound and a beautiful and singing melody.

In a band, trumpets play a key role. Because of its vivid and expressive timbre, the trumpet is often used to accentuate rhythmic and melodic parts, especially in marching bands, where it is the main instrument for playing mid-bass melodies. The sound of the trumpet is characterized by high-pitched, agitated and loud, which can create a variety of ** images and has an uplifting effect.

Overall, the trumpet plays a role in the band that provides rhythmic and melodic support, as well as shaping and reinforcing emotions.

Most of the time it's important, depending on the score you're playing. For example, in the "March of the Lion King", the trumpet is accompanied.

The position of the trumpet in the brass part of the band is still relatively important, because the trumpet is mainly responsible for the melody part in the brass part, the rhythm part is mainly responsible for the trombone, French horn, and tuba, and the clarinet is mainly responsible for the melody part in the woodwind part, and the trumpet and clarinet should cooperate with each other to complete the melody part.

But the orchestra is a whole, all the components of the orchestra are important, the trumpet may be more important in the melody part, but whether a piece can be perfectly interpreted depends on whether the melody, rhythm, polyphony and other aspects can be perfectly matched.

The highest instrument in the brass is often used to play brilliant and passionate passages, war scenes, court celebrations, and can also play lyrical melodious and sad emotions. There are many more trumpets in a wind ensemble than in a symphony orchestra. Melodic instruments and sometimes accompaniment instruments.

It is thought that all the instruments in the wind orchestra can play melodies, so the status of the trumpet in the wind orchestra can be said to be equal to other instruments, and the melody is less than that of the woodwinds. It is also more resilient in the orchestra. It is impossible to say exactly where his status is, because all instruments are very important.

A prince is average, you have to be a real prince. Otherwise, it's a source of interference.

Every instrument in the Wind Ensemble is indispensable and complements each other.

1.Light ** team: It is generally composed of electric guitar, electric bass, drum kit, keyboard, and if necessary, strings, wind and some leading instruments (piano, violin, saxophone, etc.) can be added before the first step.

2.Classical Band (What is a Classical Band called?) I understand that you are talking about a small number of bands in the classical ** style, usually with string quartets (quintets), woodwind quintets, brass quintets, and other small combinations of several instruments.

3.Jazz band: The simplest jazz band can be composed of jazz drums, bass (electric bass or wooden bass) and a leading instrument (piano, trumpet, etc.).

4.Ordinary bands (refers to bands that play common pop **?) The most common arrangements are the "Big Four" mentioned above – electric guitar, electric bass, drum kit, keyboard, and of course other instruments are often added depending on the work and style.

The role of the tuba is to form the bass of the brass section, just as the double bass of the string group and the bassoon of the woodwind group play the same role in each group. The tuba is often combined with double bass, cello, bassoon and other instruments in the orchestra to play bass at the same degree, and the effect is good. The most common use of tuba is as a bass line for a band.

When the band is larger, the sound is stronger, and the character is louder, it often plays the low part in unison with other instruments or octaves. When the band is small, the sound is weak, and the character is softer, most of the tuba is used as an independent low voice, and it is not repeated by other instruments. The tuba can also form an octave of low voice with the French horn.

Sometimes the tuba and trombone form an octave in place of the low voice of the strings. The tuba is very thick and heavy, and it is very effective in the low voice of important passages.

A four-part harmonic structure consisting of a tuba and three trombones is the most common form of harmony that strengthens and enriches the harmony power. In the weak horn quadruple method, or in a harmonic structure dominated by the French horn, if the low voice is missing, the tuba can be used as the fifth horn, but the strong is not suitable. The most ideal force is p or pp.

It is common to play weak or weakly weakened continuations alone with tuba. Sometimes the tuba continuum is used to support and enrich the rhythmic patterns of other low **, or the weak tuba is used to support the horn or woodwind part when the horn or woodwind is played in a strong or strong role; For a thicker continuation, the tuba can also be an octave with other instruments, such as a weak octave continuum with the fourth horn, and so on. The tuba is one of the indispensable instruments in the orchestra, and it plays the chorus center of gravity of the entire orchestra's sound.

Of course, it is always played with trombone, trumpet, or even French horn at f or ff dynamics, and is often repeated with two other sets of instruments, giving the whole orchestra sound a huge volume and weight.

...I don't know about traditional classical bands. I'll tell you something I want to know a little bit about, whether it's pop or rock.

In general, pop or soft rock bands have at least three people (of course, some of them only have two), a drummer, a guitar and a bass, usually with a guitarist as the lead singer. For example, green

41 and so on. If it's a more complex and heavier band, it's usually a 5-person configuration, with two guitars, one lead singer, Gabes and drums. At this time, the guitar usually walks the melody and the rhythm, and the two guitars pay attention to coordination. For example, 5 people are too much.

Individual bands have a large team, miscellaneous sampling, DJing, etc., such as slipknots, there are 9 people.

I'm in the band.

The bands all include trombone, alto, tenor, trumpet.

Sakas. Clarinet, flute, timpani, kick drum.

Small drums, conductors, smaller bands.

That's all you know.

And I'm a trombone player.

That is, the tuba.

You mean drum bands? In the drum band, the charge horn is used, also called the pentatonic horn. It is an absolute melodic instrument in drum bands, very important and numerous.

If it is a military band, it is the trumpet that is used there, and it is still the main instrument, mainly responsible for the performance of melodies, high-pitched and passionate, but also soft.

The symphony orchestra is a large family of instrumental music in the kingdom, generally speaking, it is divided into five instrumental groups: strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion, and color instruments. The following groups describe the various instruments (they are all instruments ranging from treble to bass):

String section: violin, viola, cello, double cello.

Woodwind set: piccolo, flute, oboe, English wind, clarinet, bassoon. Copper Pipe Group:

Trumpet, French horn, trombone, tuba. Percussion section: timpani, gongs, cymbals, tambourine, triangles, etc.

Color musical instrument group: piano, harp, xylophone, aluminum plate glockenspiel, etc. Instrument proportions:

Symphony orchestras use woodwinds as a sign of their choreography. According to the size, if two pieces of each woodwind instrument are used, then a "double-pipe" orchestra is formed; Use three pieces, that is, constitute a "three-pipe" orchestra; Use four pieces to form a "four-pipe" orchestra. In order to achieve a reasonable ratio between the number of instruments in each group, the number of stringed instruments and other instruments should also vary as the number of woodwind instruments increases or decreases, so as to maintain the balance of the sound of the voice.

The total number of members of the two-pipe band is about 60 people. Among them, there are 2 flutes, oboees and bassoons, 4 French horns, 3 trombones, and 1 tuba in the woodwind group (can also be omitted); 12 first violins, 10 second violins, 8 violas, 6 cellos, and 4 double basses in the bowed string instrument group; The timpani and other percussion instruments in the percussion group require a total of 3 to more players. The total number of members of the three-pipe band is about 90 people.

2 flutes, oboees, clarinets, and bassoons, plus 1 piccolo, 1 English wind, 1 bass clarinet, and 1 bass bassoon, making all kinds of woodwind instruments 3; 3 trumpets, 6 French trumpets, 3 trombones, 1 tuba; 16 violins first, 14 violins 2, 12 violas, 10 cellos, 6 double basses; The percussion group requires a total of 3 players. The total number of members of the four-pipe band is about 110 people. three flutes, oboe, clarinets, and bassoons, one piccolo, English pipe, one bass clarinet, and one bassoon, so that there are four woodwind instruments of all kinds; 6 to 8 trumpets and French horns, 3 trombones, 1 tuba; 20 for the first violin, 18 for the second violin, 16 violas, 12 for cellos, 8 for 2 double basses; The percussion category requires a total of 3 to 6 players.

The real development of China's national orchestra was after liberation. So far, the number of musical instruments and orchestra formations have gradually increased and improved, but they have not yet been established. There are also differing opinions on this issue.

Now, let's talk about the musical instruments that the national orchestra consists of, just on the usual orchestra structure.

1. Wind instrumentsIn this group of musical instruments, there are bamboo seedlings, flutes, shengs, sprays, and pipes. 2. Plucked instruments commonly used plucked instruments include pipa, liuqin, ruan, sanxian, dulcimer, and zheng. 3. Stringed instrumentsAt present, the stringed instruments that are more widely used in the band are mainly "huqin corpses."

Namely: erhu, high hu, medium hu, big hu, low hu, leather hu, banhu and so on. Fourth, the percussion instruments I boudoir is very rich, which gives the band a distinct rhythm and enriches the expressiveness of the band.

The most commonly used percussion instruments are gongs (face gongs, hand gongs, cloud gongs), bells, drums (tanggu, leather drums), plucking (big rice, horse money, small money), wooden fish, fen bells, triangles, clappers, etc. <>
