How do clarinet players adjust the resonances of their vocal tracts for different playing effects?
In a simple model, the reed of the clarinet is mechanically loaded by the series combination of the acoustical impedances of the instrument itself and of the player's airway. Here we measure the complex impedance spectrum of players' airways using an impedance head adapted to fit inside a clarinet mouthpiece. A direct current shunt with high acoustical resistance allows players to blow normally...
متن کاملHow players use their vocal tracts in advanced clarinet and saxophone performance
How and when is the player’s vocal tract important in clarinet and saxophone performance? In a simple model, the acoustical impedances of the instrument (a resonator downstream from the reed) and the player’s tract (an upstream resonator) appear in series and in their sum is in parallel with that of the reed. Using impedance heads built into functioning mouthpieces, we made measurements of the ...
متن کاملDo trumpet players tune resonances of the vocal tract?
The acoustic impedance spectrum was measured in the mouths of seven trumpeters while they played normal notes and while they practiced "bending" the pitch below or above the normal value. The peaks in vocal tract impedance usually had magnitudes rather smaller than those of the bore of the trumpet. Over the range measured, none of the trumpeters showed systematic tuning of the resonances of the...
متن کاملHow Do Soccer Players Adjust Their Activity in Team Coordination? An Enactive Phenomenological Analysis
This study examined how individual team members adjust their activity to the needs for collective behavior. To do so, we used an enactive phenomenological approach and explored how soccer players' lived experiences were linked to the active regulation of team coordination during eight offensive transition situations. These situations were defined by the shift from defensive to offensive play fo...
متن کاملExperienced saxophonists learn to tune their vocal tracts.
Acousticians have long debated whether and how the resonances of the vocal tract are involved in the playing of clarinet and saxophone. We measured the resonances of saxophonists' vocal tracts directly while they played. Over most of the instrument's range, there is no simple relation between tract resonances and the note played, and the tract resonances varied among players. In the high (altis...
