412.121Individual beating reeds   Link to MIMO collections

Definition

  • Reed instruments that are free aerophones are sounded by a flow of air in which the reed is the primary vibrator. In individual beating reeds the air-stream is directed against a single lamella, setting it in periodic vibration to interrupt the stream intermittently. The lamella periodically opens and closes an aperture. The instrument is tuned by mechanical action on the lamella. The reed may have a resonator in which the air vibrates only in a secondary sense, not producing the sound; generally recognizable by the absence of fingerholes. British Columbia. (en)
