23. String Instrument - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia A single string of a constant tension will only produce one note, so to obtain further notes string instruments employ two methods. List of string instruments. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_instrument

String instrument From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. A string instrument is a musical instrument that produces sound via vibrating strings. They may also be called chordophones , a name deriving from the Hornbostel-Sachs scheme of musical instrument classification In order for a string instrument to produce sound, its string or strings must vibrate. There are two common ways of bringing this about: instruments such as the guitar and kora are plucked, either by a finger or thumb, or by some other device such as a plectrum ; while instruments like the cello and rebec are usually played by drawing a bow across the strings. However, instruments normally bowed are occasionally plucked (this is known as pizzicato ), and instruments normally plucked are sometimes played with a bow ( Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin sometimes played the electric guitar this way, for example). Instruments which are normally bowed such as the violin, etc, must be bowed perpendicularly to the string, usually at a point half way between the end of the fingerboard and the bridge ( arco ). Bowing very the near the bridge (known as

PLUCKED STRING INSTRUMENTS The Husli No 1 Illustration: (p.6) Husli ensemble, 16th century. (Possible change drawing of more contemporary husli) BACK to the LIST OF STRING INSTRUMENTS The Kobza The history of the kobza can be traced back to 6th century Greek chronicles and it was often mentioned by wandering Arab scholars who visited Rus' in the 10-11th centuries. The term itself is thought to be of Middle Eastern extraction and was thought to have been introduced into the Ukrainian language in the 13th century with the migration of a large group of people from Abkhazia to the Poltava region. The term came to differentiate this instrument from other string instruments generically known as husli. The kobza became a favorite instrument of the Ukrainian Cossacks and was widely played by the rural masses and in the courts of Polish kings and Russian tsars. Here it served a role similar to the lute in Western Europe. Unfortunately, the kobza, like its close cousin the lute, fell into disuse and was gradually replaced by the bandura, guitar and mandolin. The term kobza later became a synonym for the bandura. The instrument kobza was traditionally carved out of a single piece of wood and consisted of a soundboard with strings strung across it. The number of strings could vary from three to eight. Occasionally it would have frets made of gut, and three to four additional strings strung along the soundboard. The strings were either plucked with a plectrum or with the ends of the fingers.

STRING INSTRUMENTS (Chordophones) There are three types of string instruments differentiated from each other by the way in which sound is produced on their strings. In the first group of chordophones we find the instruments plucked with the fingers or a plectrum. These include the husli, the kobza, the torban, and the bandura. The second group is that of the fricative chordophones. It contains the lira (hurdy-gurdy), the hudok, the violin, the basolia, and the kozobas. The third group - percussive string instruments chordophones are represented by the hammer dulcimer. Plucked String Instruments The Husli The Kobza The Torban ... Bibliography

36. Long Strings Goedhart. Long string instruments have been a popular form of working with the coupling of sound and space as a compositional subject. http://music.dartmouth.edu/~kov/soundArt/panGoed.html

Long string instruments have been a popular form of working with the coupling of sound and space as a compositional subject. The basic principle they work upon is the amplification of longitudinal waves in strings rather than transverse waves. That is, what is heard is the expansion and contraction of the length of the string, not the perpendicular displacement of the string. Thus, long string instruments can actually be "played" by the wind, by sounds travelling through the air, or by merely brushing the string horizontally. Long string instruments exist all over the globe, with instruments on the Isle of Wight, Nova Scotia, New Zealand, Australia and germany. Some Americans who have worked in this medium are Ellen Fullman, Terry Fox, Phil Niblock, Tom Johnson, and Alvin Lucier. Their first long string instrument was an installation in Mainz. When invited to make a work for the hall, Panhuysen and Goedhart wanted to create something which would employ the specific architectural and atmospheric qualities of the hall. "We wanted to make an artwork from the entire space using as few means and interventions as possible, a drawing in three dimensions, and we chose steel strings, known as 'Swedish music wire' for our drawing material." (Panhuysen, p. 2) The inclusion of sound into the work was gradual, beginning with the chosen strings. Later, they found that "the strings seemed to be better visible when they were sounded." With the decision that sound should be a part of this environment, they began working with resonators and amplifiers for the hall. When they were finished, "The space itself became a huge instrument whose sound fitted the atmosphere of the building." (Panhuysen, p. 2)
