维斯伯恩 练习曲视频 49 (Practicing Weissenborn Study #49)
《维斯伯恩高级练习曲》第49首
维斯伯恩作品Op. 8/2，第49首，为高级巴松学生而做。这首练习曲的侧重点在降E5的指法，以及在巴松的高音区如何调整簧片。特邀演奏家科林.沃特。唐英伟博士，巴松管数码教授，BDP#157。www.2reed.net
Welcome, this is Terry Ewell. Weissenborn Study #49 expands the range of the instrument to Eb5. This note, however, is a problematic pitch on the German system bassoon. It does not articulate well or respond well to large slurs.
你好！我是唐英伟。《维斯伯恩高级练习曲》第49首把我们演奏的范围扩大到了降E5。但是这个音在德系巴松管上是个有些麻烦的音。在长连线的时候，它并不能很好的发声或者回应。
Let me leave you with several fingering possibilities for Eb5. Please be aware that none of them will perform as satisfactorily as fingerings for D5.
让我给你几个可供选择的降E5指法。请注意，它们都不能像D5的指法那样演奏出让我们满意的音色。
You might find it helpful to look at the other suggestions listed in the Bassoon-Family Fingering Companion.
在“巴松－家族指法手册”中，你可能可以发现很有用的建议。

Here are fingerings for the trills presented in the study:
这是这首练习曲中装饰音颤音的指法。
I perform the mordents in line 5 with these fingerings:
第五行的回旋音我使用这样的指法。
Most performers find it helpful to use a reed adjusted for the high register to effectively perform this and the next study. My videos on reed finishing (BDP# 86-91) present my concepts and suggestions for adjusting bassoon reeds. I encourage you to study them carefully and the companion article “A Pedagogy for Finishing Reeds for the German-System (Heckel-System) Bassoon.” A link to the revised paper is available here:
很多演奏者发现调整簧片来演奏高音区是个有用的方法，尤其是在这首和下一首练习曲中。我在关于簧片调整的视频（BDP＃86-91）中阐述了我的观点以及巴松簧片调整的建议。我建议你仔细地学习一下，并阅读另一篇相关文章《为德系（海克尔系统）巴松调整簧片的教学法》。下面是这篇修订文章的链接。

Smaller reeds favor higher pitches. This is why an oboe reed is smaller than a bassoon reed, for instance. Creating a smaller bassoon reed will aid the higher notes. You can shorten the blade by cutting the tip.
较小的簧片容易演奏较高的音。举个例子，这就是为什么双簧管的簧片比巴松簧片小。把巴松簧片变小有助于演奏高音。你可以通过切割尖端来使得苇片变短小。
The poor man’s way to cut the tip is to use scissors. The traditional way to cut the tip is to use a knife and cutting block. Use a different knife than the one you use for scraping, because cutting the reed tip will dull the knife.
一些人切割尖端所用的工具是剪刀。传统方法是用刀和一个切割块。用一把你不用来擦刮的刀来做这些，因为切割簧片会使刀变钝。 2. 你也可以使苇片变窄。
You could also narrow the blade.
你也可以使苇片变窄。
Also a narrow throat helps the high register.
同时，用更窄的咽喉部分有助于演奏高音区。
In addition, rounding the first and second wires provides more tension in the blade and aids with the higher harmonics and the higher notes on the instrument.
此外，使第一铜环和第二铜环变圆也可以为刀片提供更多张力并帮助我们在巴松上演奏高音。
A high note reed also features a greater heart to wings ratio and a greater spine to rail ratio. Concepts of these ratios are detailed in my paper.
高音簧片还具有较大的苇心与启动区之比和中脊与叠合轨之比。在我的论文中有关于这些比率的详细概念。
Depending on the style of your normal bassoon reed, you may not need to make all of the adjustments given above. Just two adjustments may be all that is required for you.
根据你的巴松簧片的类型，你可能不需要做上述的这些改变。也许只有两个改变是你需要做的。
