Swing Music | This swing music is an instrumental piece. It starts off with the trumpets playing high pitched notes in harmony. The percussion starts to play with an intro roll. A wind instrument swell is played after the intro percussion roll. A wind instrument plays a repetitive lick after this followed by a piano playing chords at higher octaves in the spaces between the wind instrument licks. The bass plays the same lick on a lower octave. There are no voices in this song. This song can be played in a retro movie dance scene. | 2011-01-19T02:10:58Z | IceSkaterDuckie | First piece of music: "Jumpin' Jack" by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy Second piece of music: "Viper" by Dixieland | ["Swing music", "Music"] | ["swing music", "instrumental", "no voices", "piano", "trumpets", "double bass", "trombone", "percussion", "moderate tempo"] | 0 | LPA8RDzl-Ss | 2184 | |

Vulcan Harp & Theremin | Someone is playing a Theremin on a very high pitch going up in pitch and with a lot of vibrato. This song may be playing at home while enjoying your instrument. | 2011-01-19T00:59:37Z | Peter Pringle | This is called THE KATRIC ARK and it is one of a series of 12 compositions for Vulcan harp and theremin. Since the Vulcan harp was introduced by artist and visionary Wah Ming Chang more than 40 years ago, it has evolved considerably, along with the technology involved with its manufacture. It is acoustic, electroacoustic and electronic (it is the electronic component that permits such things as the playing of complex harmonies, glide pitch shifts, etc.). As a sculptor, Chang molded the instrument to fit the human body, and it is great to hold because it is so wonderfully ergonomic. This particular harp has 26 strings (copper, brass and silver) and is played with finger picks. There are no steel strings and the instrument does not use magnetic pickups like electric guitars. It also does not need to be plugged into anything so there are no annoying cables to get in the way. It transmits directly to its amplifier and speakers by means of an antenna integrated into the pin column (the extended curved vertical arm that holds the tuning pins). The two speakers you see in the video are JBL JRX-125 monitors. As a concept, the characteristics of "Vulcan music" are determined by the remarkable capabilities of the Vulcan harp which include many of the possibilities of the classical instruments of India. The sound of the Vulcan harp has been described as a combination of harp, lute, violin and sitar. If you add to this everything that is possible with the use of the shift disc and the harmonic valves (the seven button controls - one for each note of the diatonic scale - riding above the brass plate) you have an extraordinary number of combinations that can be explored. The harmonic valves are all level-sensitive (each responds to three degrees of left hand finger pressure applied to them: touch, half, and full) and this determines the harmony applied to the vibrating strings. Octave displacement is played by multiple valve configurations depending on the register in which the harpist wants to play.
