  1. the first question you may ask is why do we even have transposing instruments in the first place for the sake of time I'll just say that it has a lot to do
  2. with fingering so that players can switch between instruments without having to change how they play it for example changing between a B flat and an
  3. EF flat clarinet what I'd really like to cover in this video is how to deal with transposing instruments whether you're a composer or a performer an educator or a
  4. inductor you probably deal with these instruments on a regular basis to put it simply we have two different pitches the written pitch and the sounded pitch if
  5. you're playing an instrument that's in C these pictures are the same there are some C instruments that are transposed either an octave above or below what is
  6. written the treble instruments are written in octave lower than they sound and the base instruments are written in octave higher than they sound and here's
  7. a list of all of the instruments that transpose up or down an octave if you have an instrument that's in something other than c we have to compensate for
  8. the difference practically speaking there are two different types of transposition one going from concert pitch to a transposed pitch if for
  9. example you have a piano Melody and you want to transpose it to trumpet or two we have going from the transpose pitch to the concert pitch if for example you
  10. have a conductor scorer and you want to know the sounded pitch of an instrument so let's look first at BF flat instruments on these instruments a
  11. written C is a sounded B flat B flat is 2 half steps lower than C or a major second so for B flat instruments you must compensate by writing two half
  12. steps higher than the intended pitch here is Twinkle Twinkle Little Star on the piano which is a c [Music]
  13. instrument if a trumpet a B flat instrument were to play that exact line here's what it would sound
  14. like and just for fun here they are together that's bad so we compensate let's move every note of the trumpet
  15. line up a major second looking at the accidentals we noticed the trumpet is now in D Major so let's fix the key signature as well if everything has gone
  16. according to plan the two instruments should now be playing in unison but let's say that we have this particular line in front of us and we want to know
  17. what the concert pitch of the trumpet is we simply go in reverse let's move every note of the trumpet part down a major second this shows us what the actual
  18. sounded pitches of the trumpet are so when you see a B flat instrument that's listed as sounds a major second lower than written that's what that means
  19. here's a list of all of the BF flat instruments next let's look at the E flat instruments we'll compensate the exact same way that we did for the B
  20. flat instruments these instruments can either be written a minor third above or a major 6th below for these instruments a written C is a sounded E flat so to
  21. transpose from a c instrument to an E flat instrument transpose all of the notes down a minor 3D or up a major 6th here's Twinkle Twinkle Little Star again
  22. this time for piano and alto saxophone the alto saxophone sounds a major 6th lower than written so we'll take our alto sax part and we'll move it up a
  23. major 6th and along with that we'll make sure to fix our key signature finally we'll look at the F instruments there are other notes that instruments can
  24. transpose to but they're much less common the two most common F instruments are the French horn and the English horn which incidentally have nothing to do
  25. with France or England but that's another video One Last Time here's our song these instruments both sound a perfect fifth lower than written so
  26. we'll take our horn part and we'll move every note up by a perfect fifth and then adjust our key signature again if you're looking at a horn part you can
  27. move every note down a perfect fifth to find the concert pitch finally here is a non-exhaustive list of instruments and how they
  28. [Music] transpose [Music]
