By http://youtube.com/babymusicschool - This is lesson 7 (and 3rd lesson of a series of lessons) aiming to provide illustrative low and high sound ABC to easy recognize and learn high and low tone of human hearing range of 20 to 20,000 Hz
Try to accomplish a number of simple goals by watching and listening Lesson 7 video of Classical Music ABC School for babies, infants, toddlers and any other age:
1. Follow melodic flow of the composition, performed by Pan flute and Wah bass for simple pitch low and high notes recognition by a baby
2. Refer to Lessons 4, where lower end notes were played in the left speaker of a stereo field (octaves 3 and 4, labeled in Red 3, and Rose 4), while higher pitch notes were played in the right speaker of a stereo field - these are octaves 5 and 6, labeled in Green 5, and Yellow 6 of the full 88 keys onscreen keyboard.
3. Also refer to Lesson 5 where both lower notes and higher notes were combined to provide a natural panflute sound. However, compared to Lesson 4, lower notes were decreased in volume (minus 4.5 dB or -4.5 decibel), so, there was a better balance between lower and higher tunes.
This is because lower bass notes have more energy, and therefore can dominate in a mix unless we control the low end. In the following lesson 6 we will show the excess of bass tone by using another instrument with bass sound to provide a phonics illustration of this phenomenon
4. Note that bass notes in the current Lesson 7 are played by bass instrument, and are especially abundant in volume, so, we additionally decreased this section -3 dB, yet bass line is very noticeable, and should be easy recognized by a child.
5. As in Lesson 5, here I labelled running notes with a four-color laballing to map an approximate position of notes score with their position on a piano keyboard of screen bottom.
However, please note, that because of this video resolution not all five line of musical notation or staff are visible. Should you or your child remember Lesson 2 with all five lines visible, you can note it, and count how many lines are missing in the upper staff (labeled with a treble clef) and the lower staff (labelled with bass clef).
6. Keep attention of your child at a heaven playground for a surprise: a number of instruments, similar to those used for present recording, from left to right; bass guitar, bass clarinet, upright bass, and then bamboo flute (resembling a panflute) and flute.
7. Note yourself that we keep minimal onscreen activities, and changed our school "classroom" so baby attention is concentrated on hearing and following classical music and lesson tasks
8. Additionally, you can compare this lesson with Lesson 3, where the same composition is played by Piano, and low and high notes are separated to left and right channel. In present lesson 5 wah bass has distinct character, more abundant in energy, and is easy distinguished in a mix from higher notes by pan flute. In contrast, in Lesson 3 it is not easy to distinguish low and high notes played by just piano, as tunes by a single instrument have similar character.
9. Also you can encourage your baby to notice that every instrument has its' own dynamic range of notes to play. In this Lesson 7 some notes by Wah Bass are not playing because they apparently fall out of the instrument dynamic range, you can notice this by following the staff few for low octaves (labeled in Red and Orange)
10. By now you may remember the tune, so, sing it with your child/children
Each task is surely optional and is a lesson-in-itself, come back to watch this video again and advance with your active dedicated music hearing
Presented soundtrack is a Dark Wah Bass (lows) and Panflute (Highs) play of Robert Schumann's Revierie Scn 15.7 Childhood scenes or Träumerei.
Composition history:
The "Träumerei", No. 7 of the set, is one of the most famous piano pieces ever written, which has been performed in myriad forms and transcriptions. It has been the favourite encore of several great pianists, including Vladimir Horowitz. Melodic and deceptively simple, the piece has been described as "complex" in its harmonic structure
Robert Schumann (8 June 1810 -- 29 July 1856) was a German composer, aesthete and influential music critic. He is regarded as one of the greatest and most representative composers of the Romantic era.
