  • Korg CA-50 Chromatic Tuner - features high-precision tuning functionality and a slim and compact design

    Korg
    £22.50
    A portable, pocket-sized tuning solution. The CA-50: the standard tuner for orchestral instruments, now with even better visibility. The CA-50 features high-precision tuning functionality and a slim and compact design. The new CA-50’s display is now, even easier to read. Long considered the standard in chromatic tuners, the CA-50 offers simple and intuitive operation and a satisfying tuning experience for every instrumentalist. An even more readable display, with a larger note name indication. The LCD screen of the CA-50 shows a needle-type meter to quickly and accurately show the pitch, and provides a note name indication in the middle of the display. The note name indication is now larger and even easier to read. This ensures simple and smooth operation even for beginners. A wide detection range supports tuning for any instrument. The CA-50 features a detection range of A0 (27.50 Hz) to C8 (4186.01 Hz). For wind instruments from piccolo to tuba, or string instruments from violin to contrabass, you can tune band or orchestral instruments of any pitch range. A high-sensitivity mic is built in, allowing the note name to be detected accurately even without a contact mic. By using the separately sold CM-200 contact mic, you can tune with confidence that nearby sounds will not affect the result. Calibration function is provided. The calibration function supports a variety of concert pitches. It can be adjusted in 1 Hz units in the range 410–480 Hz, allowing flexible tuning that matches the song or key. Marks provided to indicate pure major and minor third intervals The meter scale of the CA-50 provides marks that indicate pure major and minor third intervals. By tuning to these marks* you can play beautiful harmonies when you're in an ensemble. This is convenient not only in a brass band or orchestra, but also for vocal or a cappella practice. * When matching a pure major or minor third, the note to be adjusted will depend on the music that you're playing. Sound Out mode is ideal for ear training The “Sound Out” mode lets you listen to a reference tone emitted by the internal speaker, allowing you to tune by ear. A reference tone in the range of C4 (261.63 Hz) to C5 (523.25 Hz) can be output. You can check the pitch using both eye and ear, allowing you to tune more accurately, and also providing an ideal method of training your sense of pitch. Dramatic increase in battery life. The CA-50 can be used for approximately 135 hours (when using zinc-carbon batteries). When the remaining battery capacity runs low, the display shows an indicator, letting you know that it's time to replace the batteries. Reduced stress when using the unit on a music stand. A new mechanism reduces the possibility that the unit will overturn, making it less likely that the tuner will slide off and fall when placed on a music stand. You'll be able to concentrate on your playing without fearing that the tuner might fall during the performance. Memory backup function and auto power-off function provided. The memory backup function remembers the calibration and sound out mode settings even when the power is turned off. (Settings are initialized when you replace the batteries.) The auto power off function automatically turns off the power when 20 minutes have passed without sound being input. Stylish body design with excellent functionality. The folding stand allows the tuner unit to be more stable on its own. The sliding battery cover is designed as a single piece with the unit itself, so there's no worry that the cover might be lost when replacing the batteries. Specification: Scale: 12 note equal temperament Detection Range (Sine wave): A0 (27.5Hz)–C8 (4186Hz) Reference Tone: C4 (261.63Hz)–C5 (523.25Hz) One octave Tuning Modes: Meter mode, Sound Out mode Calibration Range: A4 = 410Hz–480Hz (1Hz steps) Detection Accuracy: +/- 1 cent Sound Accuracy: +/- 1.5 cent Connectors: INPUT jack (1/4" monaural phone jack), OUTPUT jack (1/4" monaural phone jack) Internal Speaker: Dynamic Speaker (φ21mm) Power Supply: AAA battery (3.0 V) x 2 Battery Life: Approximately 135 hours (zinc-carbon batteries, Meter mode, A4 continuous input) Dimensions (W x D x H): 100 mm x 67 mm x 17 mm / 3.94" x 2.64" x 0.67" Weight: 81 g / 2.86 oz.

    Recorder for Beginners: The Tudor Way! by Paul Harris – the brand new recorder tutor from Jaywood Press. “If you’d like a method from the beginning, but really firmly in the early music tradition, then this is a very nice place to start” – Sarah Jeffery, Team Recorder "The recorder has, for centuries, been one of the world’s most popular instruments. It was born in medieval times but was extremely popular in Tudor times — King Henry VIII was a very keen player! So, in keeping with the recorder’s popularity in those times, here is a new and fun tutor set (almost entirely) in those wonderfully colourful Tudor times. It takes the recorder player from absolute beginner to about Grade 1 standard. Along this engaging journey, players will meet many characters and experiences from Tudor times and a number of works by contemporary composers (and some maybe just a little bit later, too). The book is written to be for individual, group or class teaching and for all ages. If you’re about to begin this book, I hope you’ll find it most entertaining and enjoyable and I also hope it will initiate an exciting new experience for a great number of new recorder players." – Paul Harris Click here to view the accompanying Teacher's Book.

  • The Weapons of Rhetoric by Judy Tarling

    Punnett Press
    £39.95
    Following the success of Baroque String Playing 'for ingenious learners' , Judy Tarling's second book strikes at the heart of musical performance with a study of the relationship between music and rhetoric, which was much remarked upon during the Renaissance and Baroque periods. Revised edition 2013 now with enlarged index and references. Comparisons between oratory and the performance of music are to be found from the beginning of the 16th century and continue until the late 18th century. Thomas Mace (1676) asks the musician to show as much wit and variety as an orator. Geminiani (1751) compares all good music to a discourse, and recommends that the musician should use the same effects as an orator. Quantz (1752) requires the musician to use the skills of an orator to become the master of the hearts of his listeners.The absence of further detail implies that the musicians of the day knew what this meant in practice. Using the works of the classical rhetoricians Cicero and Quintilian as a framework for the book, their ideas are traced through the Tudor classroom and popular Renaissance eloquence books through to the late 18th century. Concentrating on performance techniques that aid communication of musical ideas to an audience, historical source material is used to demonstrate how to hold the attention of the listener and at the same time move and delight him, as in the classical oration. Quotations from the rhetoric manuals, Shakespeare and the Bible are complemented by over one hundred musical examples, drawn mainly from the 17th and 18th centuries, which illustrate the connection between speaking and playing in the rhetorical style. Subjects covered in the book include: A survey of the sources from ancient times, Renaissance educational method, the iconography of eloquence and persuasion, the audience, decorum, stage manner, style, imitation, affect, 'the passions', word painting, allegory, speech-based delivery, tone quality, dynamics, length of notes or syllables, exclamations, emphasis, humour, nerves, sprezzatura, articulation, rests, sighs, surprise, silence, tempo, structure, rhythm, ornamentation, figures, repetition, and rhetorical schemes. This is a must have book for Early Musicians and Early Music lovers!
