Top Tip On a piece of paper – or in your very own designer’s sketchbook (see page 104) – have a go at copying the mannequins you see in shop windows, using a few bold pencil strokes. Narrow waists, statement shoulder pads, A-line or pencil skirts … you will already be familiar with the sorts of shapes you might come across. Trying these shapes out is the first step on the way to being able to draw lifelike models, full of movement.

FAMILLE DES VENTS LES

CUIVRES SANS PISTON

Elle sonorise les scènes de jazz aussi bien que les églises. Mieux vaut avoir du souffle pour la faire sonner. Louis Armstrong, un fameux.

La buccina Sa forme est en « G » comme « guerre ». Utilisée dans l'Antiquité. par les Etrusques pour conduire leurs cochons, elle officiait aussi dans l'armée de leurs adversaires : les Romains s'en servaient pour conduire leurs légions.

L'olifant La famille des cuivres ne doit pas son nom à la matière de ses instruments : la preuve, ils ont pour ancêtre cette défense d'éléphant sculptée. Un « cuivre » est un instrument dont les notes sont produites naturellement par la vibration des lèvres du musicien. (60 cm)

(2 kg, 50 cm)

Le cor des Alpes Un grand, très grand, spécialiste de la communication : Il peut mesurer plus de 15 mètres et s'entendre à 10 kilomètres ! De sommet en somment, de vallée en vallée, sa voix servait à rassembler les troupeaux et à annoncer les nouvelles au travers des montagnes.

Le cor de chasse Elle accompagne le rythme haletant des chasses à courre. Avec elle, toute la forêt est informée en direct des derniers événements. Quand retentit le « bien-allé », le cerf a les chiens aux trousses. Et quand sonne « l'hallali », il est... fichu.

(4,5 kg, 60 cm)

discover them all in total harmony.

(2 kg, 20 cm)

Alors comme ça, on dirait que faire le serial killer c’est ton violon d’Ingres?

Le didgeridoo Prendre une branche d'eucalyptus creusée par les termites, ajouter une embouchure en cire d'abeille, souffler dedans en faisant vibrer ses lèvres sans s'arrêter (on appelle cette technique le « souffle continu »). 20 000 ans plus tard, le bourdonnement de cette invention des Aborigènes ne s'est toujours pas tu.

Si tu veux me faire chanter, autant te dire que tu pisses dans un violon !

(30 cm)

Le clairon « Debout là dedans ! », « Rassemblement ! », « A la soupe ! »... Son timbre autoritaire a longtemps rythmé la vie militaire, et il est toujours utilisé pour le lever des couleurs (du drapeau). Son plus grand fait d'armes ? Avoir sonné le premier armistice de la Grande Guerre.

La trompette naturelle Comme tous ses cousins dits « naturels », c'est un simple tuyau dépourvu de tout mécanisme. Seule la tension des lèvres du musicien permet de moduler ses quelques notes. Sa voix brillante, différente de celle de la trompette contemporaine, interprète encore de la musique ancienne.
