What is Glissando?
In music, Glissando, also known as GLISS, is an instrument for musical compositions and gaming technique that sounds like a smooth slide from one note to another. On paper, it looks like a grid line leading from the initial note to a note that the image should end. Glissando is a glissando form. One known appearance of GLISS is in "rhapsody in blue" George Gershwin, who has clarinet sliding to the first permanent remark of the work. The best known for its sliding notes is a trombone that uses a set of sliding pipes to smooth move the tool from the note.
usually comes in two forms: continuous and discreet, which can also be known as chromatic. The continuous form is a smooth slide over the notes that are played on an instrument that can move from the note to the note without stopping on the notes between them. Tools that can play a continuous gliss include trombone, theremin or nefretted string instrumentNTS as a violin. Some wooden and brassNo tools can also play almost continuous glissando with special use of paint or oral position to bend notes.
discrete or chromatic glissandi have significant notes that occur quickly, but with sound notes in Glissando. This type of flash is generally used because the slide should not be smooth, but because the tool mechanics prevent playback from smooth slip. When it is written by a music notation, it looks just like a continuous flash and the instrumentalist should assume that the film should be played as smoothly as the instrument allows. The strings on the neck of the string tool cause the chain to stop on different notes, so Glissando on a decorative tool would be a discreet glissando. Most people are familiar with this type of GLISS from piano images that they like, which heard in "Great Balls of Fire" by Jerry Lee Lewis.
a similar technique called porTamento also includes bending or moving the transition between notes. Many people consider Portamento the same as Glissando, while others believe that Portamento exists when it slips between two notes, and Glissando is a spectacular slip, which moves several different notes. Other composers feel that portamento is slipped between two notes that occur in every movement of the note in Griss. In general, portamento is used more often in vocal music, while GLISS is more likely to be seen in instrumental music, especially jazz.
