Whistle! Whistle! Whistle!

If you want to whistle well, you must master the method of whistling, as follows:

First, the external blowing pronunciation method

Pronunciation practice of external blowing should be carried out under calm conditions, and all energy should be concentrated on the consciousness of blowing. The method is: take a deep breath, let the air in the chest, abdomen and lungs be as much as possible, let the tip of the tongue press against the lower teeth, the whole tongue bulges slightly, and a vent is naturally formed between the lips to maintain the status quo. Then, let the gas remaining in the body slowly blow out through the vent. At this time, the problem to be paid attention to is to control the nasal cavity and prevent air from flowing out of the nasal cavity. When blowing outward, there is no need to blow suddenly. Blow slowly in one breath, inhale and blow again. The above is the method of blowing the residual gas in the body to the outside, so it is called "external blowing pronunciation method".

I couldn't make a sound when I started practicing pronunciation outside. It doesn't matter, it's hard for beginners to blow at first. Blow one, then blow the next one, and practice it repeatedly, and then you can slowly blow out a sound that sounds like a sob. In this way, the sound is transmitted to the brain through the human auditory organs. After receiving this signal, the brain quickly finds the feeling of the mouth muscles, so that the mouth muscles are gradually shaped.

(A) the use of breath in the practice of blowing out pronunciation

(1) After inhaling, the diaphragm rises, the abdominal muscles contract, the pectoral muscles are fixed, and the vent is closed, which slowly pushes the air from the lungs to the mouth. In this way, a kind of pressure is formed in the mouth, which is called "oral pressure". When the oral pressure is greater than the external atmospheric pressure, the breath in the oral cavity will automatically exhale through the vent. When exhaling, carefully adjust the vent between the upper and lower lips to make it sound.

(2) The volume is directly proportional to the breathing flow, and the larger the airflow, the larger the volume; The smaller the airflow, the smaller the volume. The volume is inversely proportional to the air port. The larger the vent, the smaller the volume. The smaller the air port, the louder the sound and the higher the volume.

(2) Volume exercises

Volume is the life of whistle music. If you want to blow a beautiful and mellow whistle, you must practice the volume.

There are two ways to practice the paper;

(1) Blow at maximum volume. It's over. Keep it. Consciously control the diaphragm and abdominal muscles, so that the air flow can be supplied to the mouth at a uniform speed. I have practiced the * * sound induction of brain, hearing, oral cavity, nasal cavity and other organs, and I feel that the sound blown out is stable and has * * * sound.

(2) The sound changes from small to large and then to small. Blow out the sound in a low voice first, and gradually get louder. When it reaches the maximum value, it should be kept for a period of time. Recently, the sound has disappeared, a bit like the sound of a fire truck.

For beginners, after several months of basic practice, they can play some familiar tunes properly. One is to increase the fun of whistling for learners, and the other is to let learners' brains receive the musical feeling of whistling. This kind of slow training is necessary. Through this practice, beginners will unconsciously master some whistling skills.

Second, the internal inhalation pronunciation method

Internal absorption pronunciation practice should also be carried out under calm conditions, and all energy should be concentrated on the process of whistling from sound-absorbing consciousness. The method is: take a deep breath and let the less gas left in the body, the better. Let the tip of the tongue press against the lower teeth, the whole tongue bulges slightly, and a vent is naturally formed between the lips to maintain the status quo. Then the gas outside the body is slowly sucked into the body through the gas port. When inhaling inward, be sure not to inhale quickly. You must let the diaphragm sink, the pectoral and abdominal muscles expand in a controlled way, and slowly inhale the gas into the body. After an inhalation activity is completed, exhale first and then inhale. This method of whistling in the human body through the close cooperation of related organs is called "internal inhalation pronunciation method"

In whistling, inhalation pronunciation and blowing pronunciation are often combined, which makes it very convenient for players to play all kinds of music. Just like playing the violin, you should not only use the upper bow, but also use the lower bow, which is very convenient for playing music. Therefore, if you want to be an all-around whistler, you'd better master the internal suction pronunciation.

There are * * similarities between the internal suction pronunciation and the external blowing pronunciation, that is, the singing feeling, mouth shape and tongue position are the same. The difference is that outward blowing pronunciation is the process of outward blowing, while inward sucking pronunciation is the process of inhalation. Internal suction pronunciation should be combined with external blowing pronunciation practice, and the closer the timbre effect is, the better.

Third, the playing methods of low scale and high scale

(A) Bass playing method

First of all, alto sounds are pronounced. After finding the sound of * * *, it is often pronounced in the alto. While pronouncing in the bass area, it is necessary to form the idea of bass in the brain, and the brain controls the relevant organs to cooperate.

When pronouncing from C 1, the tip of the tongue should be completely separated from the lower teeth, the upper and lower lips will protrude forward with the decrease of sound, the air port and mouth will also increase, and the air flow rate will also slow down accordingly, so that the vibration frequency of the upper and lower lips will become smaller and the sound will also become lower. A bass pronunciation is over until you can't pronounce it lower.

Pay attention to pitch when practicing bass. Before pronunciation, you must have the concept of pitch in your mind, and it is best to practice it on the piano. This practice is very necessary.

After mastering the methods of bass pronunciation and playing, practice playing from the middle range to the high range.

(B) the playing method of the high scale

First, start with the alto and find the * * * sound. Pronounced in C to 1, the tip of the tongue has been pressed against the lower teeth. When you pronounce it again, your mouth and mouth start to get smaller. The higher the pronunciation, the more tense the cheeks, upper and lower lips and the tip of the tongue. When the mouth and mouth become as small as possible, a high-pitched practice is completed.

When practicing whistling pronunciation, the nasal cavity does not change much. It is best to practice in a place with reverberation, which is of great benefit to improve whistle music and beautify whistle tone.

Fourth, the playing method of overtones

When I say overtone, I mean whistling with excessive volume. As far as whistle music itself is concerned, its sound gives people a sharp and thin feeling.

If there is no excessive volume, some music works will not deal with the climax effectively, thus affecting the quality of the whole work. Overtones are more important for live performances.

If you want to increase the volume, you must inhale or blow a lot. Meanwhile, we should have a good whistle. Only in this way can the whole voice be powerful, the whistle be loud and round, and it will not be sharp and dry.

When the pronunciation is too voiced, the airflow tends to increase, but no sound can be made. This is due to the imbalance of hearing and pronunciation in the player's brain, and the * * * sound induction has not adapted well. Volume is also related to the nasal cavity, which increases with the increase of volume. As the volume decreases, the nasal cavity shrinks.

Because the pronunciation of * * * is difficult to master, and the abdominal exercise is large, so the mouth and lips are very nervous. So it's not easy to practice for too long.

Fifth, the playing method of flat tone

Whistle gives people a smooth feeling with little fluctuation, so it is called "flat tone".

Pronunciation method is: after finding the * * * sound by blowing, under the premise of control, keep the shape of tongue, mouth, mouth, chest, abdomen and diaphragm, and supply air evenly to the oral cavity. For some lyric songs with little fluctuation, the flat-tone playing method is often used.

Sixth, Boeing's gameplay

The whistle sounds like the trill of a flute, which fluctuates greatly, so it is called "Boeing"

Its playing method: firstly, it is flat, and then the tongue fluctuates up and down to make the tip of the tongue quickly block the vent, so that the airflow fluctuates when passing through the vent.

Boeing's choice should be based on tracks, and it can't be used aimlessly, otherwise it will affect the expressive power of music.

Seven, the method of sliding step on the bomb

Sliding can be divided into upward sliding, downward sliding, fast sliding, slow sliding and short sliding. Generally speaking, the player should have a range of more than two octaves, which is the premise of playing sliding.

Sliding up and down is often used to whistle. According to different tracks, there is no glide, some are used more, and some are used less. Because everyone has different understanding of music, when to use glide depends on the style of the work and personal habits.

Generally speaking, the upper sliding sound is accomplished by internal absorption pronunciation. The playing method of the upper sliding sound is: from bass to treble, the mouth becomes smaller, and the tip of the tongue changes from the bottom of the lower teeth to the position between the upper and lower teeth and the mouth.

If it is a fast sliding sound, then the mouth shape and mouth shape will change quickly. If it is a slow sliding sound, the mouth and pores will change slowly. If it is a brief sliding sound, the mouth and mouth will suddenly become smaller, and then suddenly become larger. Why does the mouth and mouth suddenly become bigger? In order to destroy the original singing state, it suddenly became louder and the voice suddenly disappeared. This is also called silencing.

Why should we rely on the change of vent and oral cavity to silence the sound instead of stopping the supply of breath? Because, when the gas supply suddenly stops, because of the inertia of the air flow, a small part passes through the air port, vibrating the lips and making them pronounce. So there is still a lingering sound, the sound is not clean, and there is no short feeling.

Eight, sliding sound playing method

Glides are pronounced from high notes to low notes, usually by blowing them out. Slippery playing method: from high pitch to low pitch, mouth to mouth changes from small to large, and at the same time, the tip of the tongue changes from the position between the upper and lower teeth and mouth to blocking mouth.

At the end of a musical composition, a falling tone is usually used. The whole song ends with a sliding sound, mainly giving people a feeling of clean ending.

Nine, single voice play

Single pronunciation is mainly suitable for external pronunciation. The word "single spit" means to pronounce one sound at a time, and the sounds are not connected. Its playing method: the abdominal muscles and diaphragm control breathing, and then rely on the abdominal muscles and diaphragm to squeeze the gas in the body cavity and mouth rhythmically to impact the whistle.

Characteristics of single spitting sound: full voice and good strength.

Single-spit pronunciation practice, one is to exercise the sense of * * * for a short time, and the other is to control the exercise breath rhythmically.

If you have good pronunciation skills, it will be much easier to pronounce Shuang Tu.

Ten, Shuang Tu sound playing method.

On the basis of a single whistle, the method of continuously issuing two whistles is the Shuang Tu playing method. Shuang Tu has a sense of rhythm. Shuang Tu must be used when playing a piece with strong rhythm and more than 16 notes.

Shuang Tu sounds the same as single voiced sounds, but Shuang Tu sounds twice as fast as single voiced sounds. The cheeks are obviously protruding outward, and whether it is a single spit sound or a Shuang Tu sound, it shows that the pronunciation is basically correct.

After mastering the methods of single vomiting and Shuang Tu blowing, you can practice the pronunciation of three vomiting and occasional vomiting.

Eleven, vibrato playing method

Tremolo is often used in expressive music. Pronunciation method: when playing the super sound, the tip of the tongue abuts against the air port and vibrates slightly up and down to make a sound.

The above pronunciation method is taken from the book Happy Whistle written by Mr. Wang, a whistle performance artist in Xinxiang, Henan Province. The book "Happy Whistle" is rich in content, including introduction of characters, anecdotes, playing methods, practice tracks, whistling experience, introduction of famous songs and so on. , set readability and theory in one. It is a rare whistle monograph. Teacher Wang's whistle has formed a unique style, with a wide range, continuous breath and full of confidence. His famous songs, such as "Return to Surento" and "Su Wu Shepherd", are melodious and intoxicating. Teacher Wang can also imitate the flute and imitate the flute with a whistle. In recent years, Mr. Wang has excavated and sorted out the national whistle art in China, and has published articles such as Xiao-Gu Shao Le and Shao Anecdotes in the news media.
