Recorder
Apr 27, 2016 21:13
Today, I will talk about a musical instrument, recorder.
The recorder is an wind instrument that generates sounds by resonance of the air.
It is said that this instrument is the origin of all wind instruments, and was originally a tool to teach songs to birds.
Actually, almost all of the Japanese people have a practical experience about recorders.
This is because we use our own recorders at music classes in most Japanese elementary and junior high schools.
There are some reasons to use recorders, such as, it's easy to treat with small hands, easy to carry, durable, and inexpensive.
By the way, I learned how to use xylophones and harps in addition to recorders when I was a junior high school student.
I heard that many other countries don't use instruments in music classes very much, but I'm not sure whether or not it's true.

リコーダー
今日は、リコーダーについて話します。
リコーダーは、空気の共振によって音を発生させる、管楽器です。
全ての管楽器の原型であり、もともと「小鳥に歌を教えるための道具」だったとも言われています。
そして実は、ほとんど全ての日本人は、リコーダーを吹いた経験があります。
なぜならば、日本の小中学校は、音楽の授業でリコーダーを使うからです。
その理由として、小さい手でも扱いやすいこと、持ち運びが容易なこと、丈夫なこと、安いことなどが挙げられます。
ちなみに私は、リコーダーの他に、木琴や琴を音楽の授業で練習しました。
他の国では音楽の授業であまり楽器を使わないと聞きましたが、本当かどうかはよくわかりません。

オーストラリアの小学でもリコーダーを使います。使うの理由は同じだそうです。その後で、楽器を習うつもりだったら、いろいろな楽器を選べる。ギターとか、ピアノとか、バイオリンとか、フルートとか・・・何でも習えます。
三年前、自分でピアノを習って始まりました。
「のんのんびより」というアニメの宮内れんげはリコーダーをかわいく吹くから、あのキャラクターが好きです。知っていますか？

Thank you very much for correcting my post!
オーストラリアでもリコーダーを使うんですね！Thank you for letting me know :)
バイオリンとかフルートもですか、すごいですね。
お金がかかりそうですが、私はフルートをいつか習いたいとずっと思っています。
のんのんびよりは知りませんでした。しかし検索したらすぐにリコーダーを吹いている少女の画像が出てきました（笑）

Hi Kanotown-san! ^^
In Singapore, we do have the experience of learning how to play the recorder in elementary school too. When I was still in elementary school, we certainly do not have much opportunity to learn and play other instruments, even in music lessons. It is only after a few years after I had graduated, that they started implementing guitar lessons into music lessons, which I was kind of envious about, haha!

Hi, Yukinekorin-san!
Thank you for letting me know the information :)
We also learn only recorders in most Japanese elementary schools.
Guitar lessons sound nice. I also wanted to take the lessons, haha.
