♪ Little Notes ♪

The ictus is the Moment of Music, the vertical dimension, the instant of the beat, the flick of a conductor's hand.

The flam is an ictus split into two.
Drag over the noteheads to hear a flam of snare drum rimshots.







In Percussionese, the flam is pronounced "Plah!".

Now try it at home: Exectue a flam on the membranophones of your own body. Take your hands, and use them to hit your left and right calves as if at the same time, but right before the ictus, hit your right first.

Audiences are flammy. Listen to this 4/4 stomp & clap beat from Queen's "We'll We'll Rockya." Click on the score to PLAY/STOP.






Here's a snapshot of 3 waveforms all meeting up on the ictus.


The top waveform is a little late, the middle, a little early, and the bottom, a little later than the top. All human music is naturally flammy, as even the tightest drummers are always a split-second early or late. Thus, the ictus is always flammed.

As a musical ornament, the flam concept is conveyed by the appoggiatura - or the added little note that precedes a note in a melody.







The appoggiatura above is a little D note, quickly played before the whole note E.

Appoggiatura's in Karnov

Check out this melody from the NES game Karnov. Click on the score to PLAY/STOP.







Now, hear this ornamented Karnov with appoggiaturas up the wazoo. These little notes add so much character to the original phrase.






I wish I could speak with appoggiaturas - little grace words preceding what I'm about to say.

As a child, I suffered from glossolalia, or "speaking in tongues". Later, as a drummer, a new kind of percussalalia would overtake me, that is "speaking in drums". For as long as I've played, the flammy beat below has been on the tip of my mind's tongue. Like picking at a wound, I love to sound this little beat out again & again. It feels more immediate and readily usable than my human speech.








In Percussionese, it's pronounced "Plah! Boom! Psaz! Boom! Bloomph! Boom! Ptang!".

One day, all the Little Notes - the graces and ghosts, the flams and appoggiaturas, will form their own band, creating the littlest, most stunning staccato music ever heard. MJ will sing, and Little Richard will play drums (with his mouth).

As the French players celebrated the victory at the end of the game, Guti said that Madrid hadn’t played well, not as it used to. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]real madrid fotos[/url] Just entering the second half, Raul Gonzalez collected a pass from Ronaldo to finish the play and set up the first goal of the match. Only two minutes after, Matteo Contini saw the red card and Zaragoza was left with 10 players. But far from collapse due to the expulsion, the Zaragoza player Adrian Colunga faced Iker Casillas and got the equalizer at minute 61. Despite this goal, the Whites kept attacking but it was not until minute 82 when Kaka, who came back from injury, picked up a deep pass from Ronaldo and put the final 2-1 for Real Madrid.

Minutes later, however, the Argentine Nicolas Young suffered a twist in his right knee, forcing him to retire from the game with seconds left in the first half. With the injury, the half ended at 2-0. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]ricardo kaka[/url] The team gave a great performance on Tuesday, playing an offensive game and demonstrating why Barcelona and its players are considered the best in Europe. Barca opened the score only 20 minutes after the game began with the newly acquired Swede Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Ibra had another opportunity to score after a pass from Messi but the ball crashed against the post.
