Pengaruh Posisi Tangan Kanan terhadap Bunyi yang Dihasilkan French Horn [The Effect of Right Hand Position on the Sound Produced by the French Horn]
Abstract
From many choices of brass instruments, French horn is a brass instrument that is still rarely found and there are not many players in Indonesia. Besides being fairly expensive, French horn is unique compared to other brass instruments. One of the peculiarities of the French horn lies in the position of the player's right hand on the bell, even though this instrument has been equipped with valves, with the aim of producing more varied sounds, outside the harmonic series of the instrument itself. This is the aim of this study, that is to examine one of the uniqueness of this musical instrument. The method that will be used in this research will be done through the library method with a qualitative approach through literature studies of books, articles, journals, documentation, videos, and other online media that are in accordance with the research and will be a reference to support research and solve problems. From this study, it can be concluded the correct right hand position and the different types of sounds that can be produced from the right hand position of French horn players.
Dari sekian banyak pilihan alat musik tiup, French horn merupakan salah satu alat musik tiup yang masih jarang ditemukan dan pemainnya pun tidak banyak di Indonesia. Selain terbilang mahal, French horn memiliki keunikan dibanding alat musik tiup lainnya. Salah satu kekhasan French horn terletak pada posisi tangan kanan pemainnya pada bell, sekalipun alat musik ini telah dilengkapi katup (valves), dengan tujuan untuk menghasilkan lebih banyak bunyi yang bervariasi, di luar harmonic series dari alat musik itu sendiri. Hal inilah yang melatarbelakangi penulis untuk meneliti salah satu keunikan alat musik ini, yaitu mengenai Pengaruh Posisi Tangan Kanan Terhadap Bunyi yang Dihasilkan French Horn. Metode yang akan digunakan dalam penelitian ini akan dilakukan melalui metode pustaka dengan pendekatan secara kualitatif melalui studi literatur buku, artikel, jurnal, dokumentasi, video, dan media online lainnya yang sesuai dengan penelitian dan akan menjadi referensi untuk mendukung penelitian dan menyelesaikan masalah. Dari penelitian ini, dapat diketahui beberapa jenis bunyi berbeda yang dapat dihasilkan dari posisi tangan kanan dan posisi tangan kanan yang benar bagi pemain French horn.Keywords
