the the Obey
0:21started life in the Middle Ages as a shawl
0:25very old instrument and it developed from the show
0:29into to the first I i've from the Brock times
0:32around 1680 1690
0:35and was used extensively by Brock
0:39composes such as handlebar and the broker that was made a different
0:44kind of wood to the modern over its made a box was and it only had two keys
0:48at the bottom there CT and any Jackie the rest were just holes
0:53but it had to double region it made a fairly similar sound
0:57following this they were developed into the classical period
1:01when Mozart and Haydn rate for it and
1:05started I think he's as they went along
1:08until it became a lot more developed into the
1:11nineteenth century early 20th century
1:14and change to this gonna delivered
1:18we have now and developed into modern obey
1:21with that is used on the bonobo is a lot heavier more durable
1:25then on the broken glass clover and also helped produce a Dhaka sound
1:29most modern overs make their own reads and to make you read
1:34used also for the chief Kane that like bamboo
1:37which is split into three pieces many
1:41to process called counting on a machine which makes it dinner
1:44you get it down to very very precise still
1:47measurements you can use what's called a shaper to shake the cane into
1:52shape you see now and at this point you then fold over this piece a cane
1:57and tires onto the staple which is that peace is a matter with call Connie
2:02using phred and then use a sharp knife to scrape the
2:07freed very precisely leaving certain areas sticker in certain areas dinner
2:12and to you and with the finished article the read making process is a
2:17never-ending learning curve I think I'll
2:21be learning how to make beats until the day I stop playing over
2:24its will pass in person
2:39they're both comes apart into three sections
2:42like this we have what's called the top joint
2:46and middle joint
2:50and the Dell if it together the matter what has to be very carefully aligned
2:56its quite delicate the modern over has
3:03approximately 46 pieces if key work the functions of which
3:08dairy from simply covering the main tone holes
3:11its 6 keys here to
3:15true keys p
3:20and also these keys on the back with your son of rates
3:24to help you and play into the ohio
3:28tives p to make a sound on the road
3:38you have to place the res when your lower lip while your lips Avot
3:42and blow p
3:49because the opening at the top of the reed is very small
3:53the over demands a lot of pressure it's quite hard work
3:57and it helps to start notes using the Tom
4:00like this sometimes
4:09in overwriting the music is written slurred Lagarto
4:12which means no turning in between the dates my
4:19sir
4:24because the pressure involved in 10 year there is quite high
4:27it takes time to build standard order to play
4:30long phrases sometimes composes demanded the instrument
4:33the sounder the CBOE can be made more expressive
4:36by the use if it brought two daughters produced
4:40using a combination of the diaphragm which is a muscle
4:43the basic rib cage and also controlling it using muscles in your throat
4:48I'll play a note starting without any prior to
4:52and then a lab to print p
5:03in some contemporary music written by living composers
5:07various techniques a asked for of the modern
5:10Oberst one of these is x&o which is quite hard to do on the Evo
5:15there are two ways of doing it you can do a short
5:18passando you season the math muscles for or you can start your fingers gradually
5:26of the keys
5:27to try and do logically sound p
5:38another technique modern composers of an ass for
5:41is thought to turn which is basically paying over last
5:45role in your house at the vacuum of are but
5:53paying both very quietly very loudly on the over is quite difficult
5:57it so controlled muscles in you
6:00Tony die from below the rib cage said
6:04play quietly have to almost used more and more support than if you think now
6:09I'm tryna
6:16her
6:22and played loudly on the Evo
6:23after open everything up really support with that I fam
6:27open your throat go for it hi
6:37not composers have used the CBOE
6:39to carry some the main june's in there writing for the lobster
6:42an example of one of my favorite tunes that they have a place
6:47new cast adrift of is this from the slow movement of Brahms
