And so at the very end of this great movement, he has the woodwinds and the brass play this last chord, and they get softer.발음듣기
대기중
It has not hurt the great success of this great masterpiece. (suspenseful music) (music gently fades)발음듣기
대기중
(slow string-based music) (ascending notes on harps) Nancy: This is a very important member of the orchestra.발음듣기
대기중
The pedals are a way of changing the pitches, by turning little levers, which exist at the top of the instrument.발음듣기
대기중
They are called forks, and they actually turn because they're connected to a rod, which runs up through the column.발음듣기
대기중
This is actually the house, the container, in which there are seven rods connected to seven pedals.발음듣기
대기중
The C pedal, which is located on the left side of the instrument, and I press with my left foot, controls all the C strings (plucks) together at the same time.발음듣기
대기중
It does that by going from an open string, C flat, and then when I move the pedal, it turns a little disk, which makes the string shorter.발음듣기
대기중
It's like putting your finger down on the fret of a guitar, or on the fingerboard of a violin, or even like putting a key down on a flute, to make the air-stream shorter or longer.발음듣기
대기중
I change the pedal and it turns this little disk, because I'm busy playing with my hands, so I can't do that manually.발음듣기
대기중
On the old folk harps you did it manually with your hand, but this is too complicated, so, C flat, and then I move the pedal down into the next position, and it shortens the string by about a quarter of an inch.발음듣기
대기중
(lower pitch) C flat. Same thing for the Ds. The D pedal controls all the Ds, which are a white string.발음듣기
대기중
These things are turning and turning, up there on the top of the instrument, while we're just playing with our hands.발음듣기
대기중
(slow strings and harp) The harp has a unique role in the orchestra because it can make a certain kind of sound that no one else can make.발음듣기
대기중
(ascending notes) is one thing, but then when you change the pitches of the strings with your feet, you can actually make chords, like an autoharp would.발음듣기
대기중
For example, if I wanted to play a whole tone scale, I can do that by setting my pedals, and it sounds like this.발음듣기
대기중
(ascending separated notes) (slow violin music) (ascending and descending whole tone scales) The important thing is that you pull the harp back on your shoulder when you play.발음듣기
대기중
You're looking down the strings. It looks like a lot of vertical strings to me, but I bring my head a little bit to the side, and the color coding, red, white and blue, is very handy.발음듣기
대기중
I can always find my Cs because they're bright red, and I can always find my Fs, because they're black or navy blue.발음듣기
대기중
(string music in background) Everything else is white, so everything else is between, but it's the normal scale, Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do.발음듣기
대기중
We only use our fingertips, and that's perhaps the most magical part of the harp, is that it's just finger power.발음듣기
대기중
No pick, nothing. We have to be very careful about the fingertips and the quality of the skin.발음듣기
대기중
If you practice too much on the harp, your sound can be rather harsh, abrasive, or even thin.발음듣기
대기중
We keep our fingernails short, and we have to actually fit our fingers in between those vibrating strings, which is not easy, because if you look, how much vibration there is laterally, you have to be careful that you don't buzz.발음듣기
대기중
We fit them in between. (ascending then descending notes) The other thing that we do with our hands is we also stop the sound.발음듣기
대기중
There's no other way. There's no pedal that stops the sound, so if I play a glissando on the harp ...발음듣기
대기중
(strings continue to hum) it lasts for a long time, and the only way to stop the sound, other than wait all afternoon, is ...발음듣기
대기중
(notes rapidly stop) or ... (notes rapidly stop) or we just play a chord, (sound stops) and we stop the sound.발음듣기
대기중
(lively strings and brass) (harp sounds rapidly ending) Many harpists start on the piano, and then transfer to the harp, or play both instruments alongside.발음듣기
대기중
It looks line the inside of your piano, because it's exactly what the inside of the piano is.발음듣기
대기중
We have gut strings, which are like tennis racket gut, only a little bit more refined, and those strings make a beautiful, warm ...발음듣기
대기중
(gruff low notes) Very brassy and wiry sounding, and we need that for projection of the low notes in certain works we play.발음듣기
대기중
It's a fun instrument to play, but it's very complicated, because a lot is going on in your mind.발음듣기
대기중
All the fingerings that we do, although somewhat related to the piano fingerings, are very different, because we only use eight fingers.발음듣기
대기중
The other difference is that when we play the harp, when you play the harp, you play with your hands suspended in air, and the fingers go in the same direction.발음듣기
대기중
You suddenly transfer from your thumbs meeting each other, to the harp, where the thumbs are doing the same positioning.발음듣기
대기중
(slow strings and brass) (repeated descending notes) I started the piano first when I was about five.발음듣기
대기중
I loved the piano, and I had a harp in my living room, and my mother wanted me to play the harp.발음듣기
대기중
She loved the instrument. She lived next-door to a harpist in Phil Spinalny's All Girl Orchestra, back in the late '40s, and she became enamored with the instrument, so she bought an instrument, and it was in the living room.발음듣기
대기중
I played the oboe until I was 19, and I played the harp, and I played the piano, and I learned to sight-read on the piano.발음듣기
대기중
It suited me, and I got a lot of jobs playing when I was young, because there aren't a lot of harpists in every community like there are flutists for example, or violinists, so it's a novelty, although I saw it my whole life.발음듣기
대기중
My mother took me past Juilliard, which was up-town in New York City, and she said, "That's the Juilliard School."발음듣기
대기중
I didn't get very nervous. I thought it was a beautiful way to express myself musically, and I still played the piano a lot, but not as well, and it's such a competitive field, the piano, and such a big repertoire, I felt that this was a manageable instrument for me.발음듣기
대기중
It just suited me very well, so I really made a commitment to it when I was, I would say, 13 years old.발음듣기
