Every subject has its own terminology, and music is no exception. The following is the basic knowledge of some musical terms. Let's have a look!
The main term of music, the noun melody, also called mode, is a line of sounds formed according to a certain height, length and strength. It is the most important means to shape the image and soul of music.
The relationship between the length and strength of each sound in rhythm. Because different tones are different in length and strength, the melody must contain rhythm.
Uniform alternation of strong beat and weak beat. There are many different combinations of beats, called "beats", and the normal rhythm is carried out according to a certain beat.
The degree of speed. In order to accurately express the thoughts and feelings of music, it is necessary to make the work sing or play at a certain speed.
Strength. The change of sound intensity also plays an important role in shaping the music image.
The high and low range of the sound area. The voices in different vocal areas have different functions and characteristics in expressing thoughts and feelings.
Acoustic characteristics of different voices, different musical instruments and different combinations. Through the contrast and change of timbre, the expressive force of music can be enriched and strengthened.
Harmony two or more voices are combined together at the same time according to certain rules. The strength of chord progression, stability and instability, harmony and disharmony, and the tendency of unstable and disharmony chords to stability and harmony constitute the functional system of harmony. The function of harmony directly affects the strength, tightness and strength of rhythm. In addition, the acoustic effect of harmony can be divided into light and shade and density, which makes harmony have the function of rendering colors.
The simultaneous combination of two or more melodies. The simultaneous combination of different melodies is called contrast polyphony, and the successive imitation of the same melody at an elbow is called imitation polyphony. The application of polyphonic music can enrich the image of music, strengthen the motivation of music development and the independence of sound, and produce the effect of echo before echo.
Modal is a series of sounds summarized from the different tones used in the melody and harmony of musical works. These sounds are interrelated and keep a certain tendency. Tonality is the pitch of the mode center tone (tonic). In many musical works, the conversion and contrast of mode and tonality is an important way to reflect the changes of atmosphere, color, artistic conception and image.
Various elements of music language cooperate with each other and have ever-changing expressive force. Although melody is the soul of music, other elements have changed, and the image of music will also change to varying degrees. Under certain conditions, other factors can even play an important role.
The basic term of music is the vibration law of musical sound, which sounds obviously high and low.
The noise vibrates irregularly and the sound is not obvious.
The total number of tones used in music.
Each tone in the phonology is called a scale. It includes basic level and variable level.
On the piano keyboard, the pitch relationship between any two adjacent keys is semitone.
On the piano keyboard, any pitch relationship between two keys separated by a key is a whole tone.
The name of the voice. Represented by c, d, e, f, g, a and b.
The name used for roll call. Sing with do, re, mi, fa, sol, la and si.
The seven basic tones of a phonetic group appear repeatedly, resulting in many voices with the same names but different pitches, so they can be divided into several groups, which are called phonetic groups.
The absolute height of each tone in a music system. At present, the widely used melody in the world is twelve-average melody, in addition to pure melody and fifth melody. The law of twelve averages: divide octaves into twelve equal parts.
When pitch and overtone strings vibrate, not only the whole string vibrates, but also its second, third and fourth paragraphs vibrate. The sound produced by whole string vibration, that is, the clearest sound, is called pitch; The sound produced by the vibration of other paragraphs is not easy to hear clearly, which is called overtone.
Vocal range refers to the pitch range of music system, human voice, musical instrument or work.
