hi I'' m Keith Bragg as well as I'' m the piccolo gamer in the your band this is my tool the piccolo it'' s the tiniest instrument in the flute area and also it'' s approximately half the length of a regular concert groove the notes that it plays are an octave greater than those of the show flute as well as it'' s a shifting instrument which means that when you continue reading the stave say a C the third area of the treble stave and play that the note that is really heard is an octave greater to ledger lines over the stave it has 3 distinct colors of register the reduced register is soft as well as mellifluous between register it comes to be instead sprightly perky rather rather and also then in the high register it can come to be extremely strident and also actually can reduce with the sound of a whole Band having fun at full blast and also add a type of edge to the sound it'' s truly an instrumental tool much more than a solo instrument there are some solar works written for the piccolo but in culinary terms I think about the piccolo as resembling the seasoning in the band like the chili as well as whereas people would love to eat a meal that has chili in it they'' d rather not eat a dish which is completely Chilean therefore I believe it goes to its ideal when played in the symphony orchestra it'' s made of african blackwood as well as the secrets are silver and also although it'' s in the groove family members as well as it'' s half the length of lute is really really different to the groove in terms of construction due to the fact that the concert groove has a round body and a conical head which tapers and also the piccolo is the opposite way around the head is cylindrical and the body tapers and so boils down to a thin factor there it simply flares at the end so although it looks exactly the exact same it'' s really rather different individuals have attempted to make grooves on the very same boars Piccolo'' s on the same birthed as a flute regarding state with a cylinder body and once it does a whole lot of points effectively it simply doesn'' t fairly play harmonic in addition to this this old system which is essentially from even more back from when the flutes were made in in the 18th century which was this was the way they were made as well as no one'' s truly took care of to come up with a schematic for the for the body of the flute of the piccolo cylindrical II which works also the embouchure is very similar to the flute as well as that'' s really similar to blowing across the top of a container so if you primarily cover half the top of a container with your reduced lip as well as impact against the contrary side you produce a fipple which splits the air and also starts the air shaking which'' s just how the audio on the groove is made and the Sam on the piccolo'is made in the same way you ' re just covering a few of this hole as well as blowing versus the opposite edge some people believe the piccolo ought to be had fun with a much tighter embouchure since it'' s smaller sized I rather preferred the technique which where you simply apply virtually the exact same embouchure that you utilize on the flute to the piccolo and also generate the sound this way when I was 12 I was asked in a college class what tool would you like to pledge you might play any kind of one and also I put my hand up and said the piccolo and also they stated well you you can'' t do that you can ' t discover the piccolo first you need to begin with the flute because that'' s the means people are educated always on the groove first so at some point I began the groove much more or much less neglected about the piccolo and throughout my university years you understand was a groove gamer and simply looking to be a groove gamer yet I wound up getting a work as a piccolo player in a ballet Orchestra the Bally arsenal is really particular and has a horrible lot of piccolo solos in so this was the excellent task in which to find out to become a specialist piccolo player as well as at some point I did as well as the job in the philemon you turned up as well as I auditioned and got it and afterwards it type of hit me then that that had been my starting factor when I was 13 when I first sent my hand in the air to say that was the tool I intended to play there'' s that there ' s an old adage it ' s the the the standard duty of a piccolo due to the fact that you get a lot of remainder there are a great deal'of times when you'' re not playing when you ' re just counting the ball and also after that you'obtain these little rushes where you ' re unexpectedly extremely audible and also the old expression is that you'' re either frightened to fatality or burnt out to fatality as a bit latter since you'' re checking you recognize you can be counting for ages yet after that when you in fact play it'' s type of fairly frightening if you take the complete symphony of Tchaikovsky you do not play in the very first 2 motions in any way the initial point you plays in the Scherzo as well as it'' s an extremely hairy solo that comes rattling in you require to start on the groove you need to become an excellent groove gamer first of all since the flutes the tool it'' s the type of bass instrument of the household and also it teaches you all the basic concepts of exactly how to play the groove and just how to to make the family work if you like then you require to have the chance to have experience on the piccolo and also you require to have excellent pitch because you'' re so often stuck at the top of the chord and if your pitches his method word then you truly can be very challenging there'' s comparable abilities to those of a flute gamer yet this this idea of this idea of being prepared to rest for a very long time and maintain your concentration to make sure that when you do finally come in as well as you can play your finest I suppose that'' s a relatively distinct ability that you need as a piccolo player since of this thing I was claiming earlier about the sphere being not rather so well arranged out if you like as the groove you do require to have even more adaptability in using different fingerings so because that not all the notes normally drop in the best place in the method they do rather much on the groove so hi-c for instance has a tendency to be fairly a level note unless you'' re playing it really loud so I have several fingerings for Topsy so I would start with then they'' re all that one ' s a little bit sharper or high c-sharp would certainly be each one of those is simply a fraction higher than the previous one which enables me to play the C sharp in the area it fits in the dynamic within the core without needing to do excessive with my lips so in general I'' d say you use a whole lot much more unusual fingerings on the piccolo than you do on the groove it would certainly be single tonguing with me simply saying - then double small will be that'' s going teka teka teka teka in - after that triple would be as well as then 2 against three dual versus triple will certainly be those are all absolutely standard for the groove as well as for the piccolo and also undoubtedly for the alto and also the bass the various other tools in our family members if you'' ve appreciated finding out about the tools in the band why not try our iPad application the Orchestra
