Introducing
Eighth
Notes
When we need notes that are shorter than quarter notes, we can use
eighth
notes. Each eight note
is worth half a quarter note.
See if you can spot the eighth notes in Donkeys, clap the rhythm, listen to the track, then try to play it.
Starting Notes with Your Tongue
On the jS
AX
we should start some of the notes using our tongue. This is called articulation.
Play a B, and without stopping the air from your lungs, touch the tip of the reed with your tongue
to stop the sound. When you take it away the sound will carry on. Now play the note again and try
to touch the reed, as if you are saying “Tu, tu, tu,”. Try to make all the notes the same length. This is
called tonguing!
Try playing Hot Cross Buns, and think about tonguing all the notes.
