CrossCapo tuning ten-hole harmonica

Abstract

The utility model discloses a CrossCapo tuning ten-hole harmonica, the solid harmonica of the harmonica has ten holes, and the tuning of the ten-hole harmonica is arranged from low to high in a way that the blowing sound of one hole of the harmonica is lower than the inspiration sound of one hole by two half tones, and the blowing sound of the other hole of the harmonica is lower than the inspiration sound of the other hole by two half tones. The pitch configuration relationship of the blowing sounds from the first hole to the tenth hole of the harmonica entity is as follows: large three degrees, small three degrees, pure four degrees, large three degrees, small three degrees, small three degrees, increased four degrees, small three degrees and pure four degrees in sequence; the pitch configuration relation of the inspiration sound of the first hole to the tenth hole of the harmonica entity is as follows: pure four degrees, large three degrees, small three degrees, small three degrees, large three degrees, small three degrees, large two degrees, small three degrees and large three degrees in sequence. The tuning arrangement of the first 1-6 holes of the harmonica is consistent with that of the traditional Richter, the characteristic that the harmonica is suitable for playing two-pitch Bruss is reserved, and meanwhile, complete twelve-pitch scales are formed in the middle and high pitch areas (namely 5-9 holes), so that the harmonica is suitable for playing twelve pitches. And seven chords which can be played by the ten-hole harmonica are expanded to four chords I7, V7, IIm7 and VIIm7b5.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of musical instrument structures, and particularly to a CrossCapo-tuned ten-hole harmonica. Background Art

[0002] A ten-hole harmonica is a multi-reed musical instrument that produces sound by blowing or inhaling air through the mouth to vibrate metal reeds. This type of harmonica usually has different tuning arrangements. The traditional Richter tuning arrangement of a ten-hole harmonica is suitable for playing traditional blues-style music in the second position. Its tuning arrangement is as follows in the table:

[0003]

[0004] In most cases, only the first 1-6 holes of the Richter tuning are needed to play traditional blues-style music. For example, the BigSix harmonica of Seyd. Since the traditional Richter tuning arrangement lacks the b7 note in the middle register, it is not suitable for playing tunes containing "fa" in the melody in the high-middle register at the twelfth position. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] Aiming at the problem that the existing Richter tuning arrangement of a ten-hole blues harmonica has no "b7" note in the middle register, and thus cannot play the "twelfth position" perfectly in the high-middle register, the utility model provides a newly named CrossCapo-tuned harmonica, which adjusts the blowing note of the 7th hole of the traditional Richter tuning arrangement to b7 and the inhaling note to 1, making it suitable for playing the twelfth position in the high-middle register of the 4-10 holes. The first 6 holes of a ten-hole harmonica are suitable for playing in the second position, and the last 7 holes are suitable for playing the twelfth position.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] For a CrossCapo-tuned ten-hole harmonica, the physical harmonica grid has a total of ten holes. Tuning the ten-hole harmonica from low to high, the blowing note of the first hole of the harmonica grid is 2 semitones lower than the inhaling note of the first hole. The interval configuration relationship of the blowing notes of the first to tenth holes of the physical harmonica is in turn: major third, minor third, perfect fourth, major third, minor third, minor third, augmented fourth, minor third, perfect fourth; the interval configuration relationship of the inhaling notes of the first to tenth holes of the physical harmonica is in turn: perfect fourth, major third, minor third, minor third, major third, minor third, major second, minor third, major third, that is:

[0008] . Advantageous Effects

[0009] After adjusting the tuning arrangement of the ten-hole harmonica, the first to sixth holes are the same as the traditional Richter tuning arrangement. While retaining its characteristic suitable for playing second-position blues, a complete twelve-position scale is formed in the mid-high pitch range (i.e., the 5th to 9th holes), which is suitable for playing the twelve-position. Such a harmonica is convenient for playing both the second-position and the twelve-position. Moreover, the seven chords playable on the ten-hole harmonica are extended to: I7, V7, II m7, VII m7b5, a total of four. While the traditional Richter tuning arrangement can only play 2 seven chords. Description of the Drawings

[0010] Figure 1 This is the ten-hole tuning arrangement of the present utility model. Detailed Implementation Modes

[0011] As Figure 1 shown, the physical harmonica grid of this application has a total of ten holes. For the ten-hole harmonica from low to high, the tuning arrangement is that the blowing note of the first hole is 2 half-tones lower than the drawing note of the first hole. The interval configuration relationships of the blowing notes from the first hole to the tenth hole of the physical harmonica are in turn: major third, minor third, perfect fourth, major third, minor third, minor third, augmented fourth, minor third, perfect fourth; the interval configuration relationships of the drawing notes from the first hole to the tenth hole of the physical harmonica are in turn: perfect fourth, major third, minor third, minor third, major third, minor third, major second, minor third, major third.

[0012] Taking the C key as an example, the note names of each hole of this application are as follows:

[0013]

[0014] The first to sixth holes are the same as the traditional Richter tuning C-key harmonica arrangement, retaining its characteristic suitable for playing second-position blues. The 5th to 9th holes consist of the notes of drawing the 5th hole, blowing the 6th hole, drawing the 6th hole, blowing the 7th hole, drawing the 7th hole, drawing the 8th hole, blowing the 8th hole, and drawing the 9th hole to form a complete F key scale: F, G, A, Bb, C, D, E, F. And at the same time, blowing the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th holes simultaneously obtains the chord C7; drawing the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th holes simultaneously obtains the chord G7; drawing the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th holes simultaneously obtains the chord Bm7b5; drawing the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th holes simultaneously obtains the chord Dm7.

[0015] The above are only the preferred implementation modes of the present utility model. The protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions within the idea of the present utility model belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, several improvements and refinements made without departing from the principle of the present utility model should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
