Suona is a common musical instrument in our life, as well as a traditional oboe woodwind instrument in China. Suona is often used in weddings and funerals. Suona can play sad music in white events, and can play festive music like "Hundred Birds Chase the Phoenix" in happy events, with strong musical expression.
The Correct Method of Suona Tone Change
1. It is better to use D tone suona, which can be used to change the tone for beginners.
2. A basic tone name familiar to all Suona players. Because it is a necessary tune for beginners, it is called "Benxue" in terms of folk artists.
3. The naming of this "tune" is a general term used by all regions. However, when changing to other tunes, the popular names in different places are quite different. For example, when opening the first sound hole, some places call it "old tune"; There are also places called "Six Tunes". When opening the second sound hole, some places call it "Xiaomenggong Tune"; There are also places called "Plum Blossom Tone". When opening the third hole, some places call it "back tone"; There are also places called "Zafandiao" and so on.
4. To illustrate the method of setting the tone, take the "seven inch" small suona as the reverse, and its "local key" pitch is equivalent to the central "C" or "1" of the keyboard instrument. Then, its scale is arranged as "125456712", and then, taking 1234567 70 tones of this scale as the tone name of the seven tones of "CDEFGAB", we can get the phonemic fingering of "1=e, 1=D, i=E, 1: F, 1: G, 1: A, 1=B".
Why is the tone of suona different
Suona has two tones: high tone and low tone.
Because the tuning method and playing skills of suona determine that its range is relatively narrow and it can only play a certain range of pitch, so the pitch can only be adjusted by controlling the tension of breath and lips when playing.
At the same time, the voice of Suona is special, with a unique sense of sadness and boldness, so it is widely used in Chinese traditional music such as solo, ensemble and occasion singing.
Suona, as one of the traditional Chinese musical instruments, has a long history and rich cultural heritage.
The sound of suona can be heard in Chinese folk music and opera performances. It is not only a part of Chinese traditional culture, but also an important part of the inheritance and development of Chinese people's culture.
Nowadays, with the social changes and people's renewed attention to traditional culture, the suona is also continuing to grow, inheriting and carrying forward China's excellent traditional culture.
What is the difference between the fixed tone and the indefinite tone of suona
Those who are not in tune can play each key by changing their fingers, while those who are in tune cannot.
In the traditional method of setting the tone of suona, it is based on the instrument used. Regardless of the size or the thickness of the wooden tube, all the sound holes are pressed, that is, the tube sound is called "the tone".
