1 min learn suona ventilation method

1 min learn the method of suona ventilation, as follows:

The tongue contracts inward, storing the gas in the mouth, keeping the mouth shape unchanged, and the chin contracts upward, so that the gas in the mouth is discharged evenly, so that the suona blows up. Inhale through the nose when exhaling. This step is more difficult, but it is easier to learn by decomposing exercises first. Inhale through the nose to the lungs and then exhale. At this time, the nose and mouth have a process of mutual transformation.

Repeated training can be perfect. Before mastering this technology, the practice stage lies in diligent practice.

Suona:

Suona is a traditional double reed woodwind instrument in China. As early as the 3rd century AD, with the opening of the Silk Road, suona was introduced to China from Eastern Europe and West Asia. It is a member of the oboe family in the world. After thousands of years of development, suona has its unique temperament and timbre, and has become a representative national wind instrument in China.

The sound of suona is magnificent, and the tube body is mostly made of rosewood and sandalwood, which is conical. The top is equipped with double reeds made of reeds, which are connected with the wooden pipe body through a copper core or a silver core, and the lower end is sleeved with a copper bowl. There are also semitone keys and treble keys to add keys to the suona, which expands the range and increases the expressive force of the instrument.

In Taiwan Province Province, it is called advocacy; In the south, it is one of the eight-tone musical instruments. In Henan and Shandong, it is called trumpet. Traditional suona has classic tracks such as "A Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix" and "Twenty-eight Plates in Western Henan". High-pitched suona has strong penetrating power and appeal, and has been used for accompaniment of folk drum classes and local folk arts and operas.

After continuous improvement, it developed into traditional suona and keyboard suona, which enriched the playing skills and improved the expressive force. It has become a unique solo instrument, with rich timbre, alto and bass suona, which are mostly used in national orchestras and symphony orchestras.

Suona consists of five parts: whistle, air tray, core (called flute needle in some places), suona pole and suona bowl. There are eight holes (the first seven and the last one) in the wooden conical tube, and a thin copper tube is installed at the upper end of the tube, which is covered with a reed whistle with double springs, and a copper bowl-shaped speaker is installed at the upper end of the wooden tube. Although the suona has eight holes, the sound of the seventh hole is the same as that of the drum, and the sound of the eighth hole is the same as that of the first hole.
