The Technique of Orchestration , p.148 149. ISBN 0 13 040771 2. ref Pedal tones are special notes in the harmonic series music harmonic series of cylindrical bore brass instrument s. A pedal tone has the pitch of its harmonic series fundamental tone. Its name comes from the pedals of a pipe organ. Cylindrical brasses do not naturally vibrate at this frequency. A closed cylinder vibrates at only the odd members of its harmonic series. This set of pitches is too sparse to be musically useful for brass instruments therefore, the bells and mouthpieces of brasses are crafted to adjust these pitches. The bell significantly raises all pitches in the series, and the mouthpiece limits the amount to which higher harmonics are raised. The resulting set of pitches is a new harmonic series altogether. This new series has all but one of its members present, instead of only the odd members. The member not present in the new series is the fundamental. The original fundamental is not raised all the way to the new fundamental pitch, and the original third harmonic becomes the new second harmonic. The new fundamental can be played, however, as a pedal tone. The higher resonances of the new series help the lips vibrate at the fundamental frequency and allow the pitch to sound. The resulting tone relies heavily on overtone s for its perception, but in the hands of a skilled player, pedal tones can be controlled and can sound characteristic to the instrument.

essay date December 2010 Unreferenced date December 2009 The Variations on a Nursery Tune , Op. 25, is a piece for piano and orchestra by Ern Dohn nyi . It is subtitled For the enjoyment of humorous people and for the annoyance of others . Written in 1914, it captures the spirit of Romantic music Romanticism , and manages to delight and enthral in its sparkling piano writing and lush orchestral textures, and its wit in the treatment of the theme the French nursery song Ah, vous dirai je, Maman , otherwise known as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star .

For instance, variation 8 suggests the march from the second movement of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky Tchaikovsky s Symphony No. 2 Tchaikovsky Little Russian Symphony . Claude Debussy Debussy is alluded to, with the ethereal harmonies of the 11th variation. Dohn nyi pokes fun at nearly every composer his audience o ... more details
