The question that often comes to mind someone because it seems to have been instilled since childhood that not figure easier than musical notes. Not the beam more difficult than not numbers. So, should learn musical notes or note numbers (?)

According to the author's personal experience, whether or not the number of musical notes equally easy. Either not numbers or musical notes are equally difficult. Well, how come?

Yes !!! Easy if we want to learn and study. Difficult if we are lazy, reluctant, are unwilling to learn and study.
If you include actors in the art of sound, like a choir member, soloist, vocalist, and others as long as the associated circuitry sound art, it is not the numbers will be good friends in the everyday both joy and sorrow, he he ..

However, unlike the case with music players, then it will be a daily musical notes which always accompany the exercise and the current show.

train the brain to pit instrument

Train the brain to pit instrument is to optimize the function of both hands. If further observed, the most common percussion players who are just learning, they only optimize the punch with the right hand and rarely train blows with left hand. When in fact the left hand that need extra training.
Perhaps more to the habit from childhood we are taught to always active with the right hand. Our current activities are rarely small geared to balance the functions of both hands. As a result, at the present time, when the game percussive required to be active in both hands, feel distress as seen from the quality of different strokes.

traditional music percussion Indonesian archipelago

Percussion is the basic instrument used by ethnic music in Indonesia, so this time I took the title of the traditional music percussion Indonesian archipelago. Starting from the west end to the east end of Indonesia, each ethnic music there must be an element of percussion instruments.
Percussion instrument is an instrument played by striking, understanding simple as that, if your friends may not know. Percussion used vary, ranging from a pitched up which was pitched. Starting from functioning as rhythmic, until that serves as melodic.

  

I take the example Gamelan. The instrument is owned by several of them ethnic Javanese, Sundanese, Balinese. Although it has a different character each ethnic, but in general the percussion used are drums of various sizes to produce a wide variety of tones (including if a different way to hit it), then there is also the instrument of melodic metal and then do the tuning process (setting the tone ). One that distinguishes between the ethnic tone used is the distance (scale)

.

Sunda different Java bali, different in Sumatra. Talempong example. Then, in the eastern part of Indonesia, instrument named Tifa & Fu. And many others.

Indonesia so much culture, one culture percussion as well as many kinds. Even at the annual event WGI 2015 in the USA, one of the band brought the show and brought the Kecak dance elements of Bali. Kecak is unique because rhythmic sing with the mouth, with a variety of patterns.

learn percussion is learning power

The above title may be a summary of my discussion with friends Marching Band trainer who happened to meet. Learning percussion is learning power, is a sentence that fits in my opinion.

Often as a coach percussion (especially pit instrument), we trouble building a game with the dynamics as you wish. One reason is probably due to the member, or the students have not we taught to dare hit tool. When it diahadapkan with the dynamic game that requires playing with a large volume, the players seem less capable.

A possible solution could be applied is to teach players to dare to hit when it was still in the early days of learning pit instrument.

Based on the author's experience in teaching, the more effective way to shape the character of the players and for issuing characters while playing the instrument. The second advantage is that players no longer need hard to play with a small volume, because it was used by a punch with high power. Most assume that if hit with a major power will damage the instrument. Dear readers, if thinking like that, mending instrument wrapped aja, let durable, he..he..he ..

So, for friends who may be a new beginning of the study pit instrument, make sure dared to hit. Embed learning percussion is learning power

how to get in the mood to write song

Always intend to work wholeheartedly. Begin to pray that God ease all our affairs. Without Him, our work is not nothing. If you are Muslim, you start every intention of reading basmalah "Bismillahirrohmanirrohiim". Insha Allah it is enough.

Listen to the songs you do not like. Neither the genre, lyrics, song structure, substantially more "worst"is better to build up the mood. If you DO NOT LIKE Dangdut, listen dangdut. If you do not like Kangen Band, listen Kangen Band songs, if you do not like Slipknot, listen songs them.If you hate Campursari, turn the song Campursari either by Pak Manthous or anyone. Wake up your mood of the songs you do not like. Not only heard, but focus on one instrument, Allah willing, there are parts that would later become the inspiration pattern in the song writing. In the book "SHOW YOUR WORKS" Austin Kleon, written that the frontman of Radiohead, Thom Yorke, each felt writing the song too ordinary, took an instrument that is not her master and write a song with that tool.

Prepare a "motivator" near Anda.Taruh in place that you easily view / glance. For example, photos of parents who taped a picture Kaaba, miniature car of your dream, Photo bride (especially for those of you who still flunky), Money wad, or whatever it is that motivates you to write a song.

Turn off your phone. When working, the most severe disorders is your phone. It could be more serious when you find any idea, fitting want to write eh .... your phone rang .... after being appointed and chat then closed, fitting want to further work on the song ... uh ... the idea already floated.

Provide a special time to work writing songs. This is important. Because the deadline for downloading ourselves, also to learn discipline, as well as for your phone silent.
