	Erich von Hornbostel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hornbostel also argued that music should be a part of more general anthropological research.
		Hornbostel was born in Vienna into a musical family.
		Erich Moritz von Hornbostel (February 25, 1877 - November 28, 1935) was an Austrian ethnomusicologist and scholar of music.

	History of Musical Instruments Classification Systems
		Hornbostel and Sachs really broke with tradition in 1914 by developing their system which improves on the Mahillon model.
		Although the Schaeffner and Buchner systems are both worthwhile, Hornbostel and Sachs is still the model that ethnomusicologists use today.
		The German musicologist, Buchner, also made changes to the famous Hornbostel and Sachs model by creating a system that grouped together three categories: idiophones, aerophones and symphones.

	CHAPTER 2
		According to Hornbostel and Sachs, the neck of an arched harp curves away from the resonator while the neck of an angular harp makes a sharp angle with it.
		Hornbostel and Sachs further sub-divided open harps into two sub-categories: 'arched' and 'angular' harps.
		Hornbostel and Sachs divided them into two categories: 'frame harps' and 'open harps'.

	ETHNOMUSICOLOGY
		Curt Sachs theories on the origins of musical instruments, include the theory that music produced by the body (clapping hands, stamping feet, etc.) generated other mediums (musical instruments).
		Kunst visited Java in 1919 and studied the gamelan tradition; he and E.M. Von Hornbostel were interested in the two gamelan tuning systems: the pelog (7-tone) and the slendro (5-tone).
		As mentioned in the article on "Ethnomusicology" in The New Groves Dictionary of Music and Musicians, the origin of the term ethnomusicology is attributed to Jaap Kunst (1891-1960): Musicologica: a Study of the Nature of Ethno-musicology, its Problems, Methods, and Representative Personalities, 1950 (Pegg 2001:367).

		Another landmark Hornbostel publication is "Systematik der Musikinstrumente." Together with Curt Sachs, Hornbostel created a method of classifying musical instruments that is used even today.
		Overall, Sachs’ works are of a general nature, presented in simple terms, and the information within provides a guide for the beginning student.
		Sachs wrote not only about the history of music but also about musical instruments.

	Calling a Fiddle a Lute: The Hornbostel-Sachs System for the Classification of Musical Instruments
		Hornbostel and Sachs proposed a more flexible modular framework that would allow for "open-ended discussion" and future updating.
		In the introduction to their article Systematik der Musikinstrumente (Zeitschrift für Ethnologie, 1914), Hornbostel and Sachs recognized that instruments "are alive and dynamic, indifferent to sharp demarcation and set form, while systems are static and depend upon sharply drawn demarcations and categories."
		And when you take into consideration the fact that the name of each and every instrument may vary from place to place, people to people, musician to musician, the study and documentation of musical instruments can be exercises in frustration.

		Hood (1971) devised ‘organograms’ using symbolic language and diagrams incorporating performance techniques, musical function and social and cultural considerations; he also added the electrophone to the Hornbostel and Sachs divisions.
		History: The most comprehensive scholarly system for classifying instruments on a worldwide basis is that devised in 1914 by Hornbostel and Sachs.
		Drägner (1948) extended the Hornbostel and Sachs system, taking account of instruments musical and physiological functions.

		" Further, bones, numbered 111.1 in the Sachs-Von Hornbostel system are "...
		Sachs notes that "The clapper seems to have been an instrument frequently associated with the worship of Hathor and probably every woman had her clapper to worship the goddess, as today every Catholic women owns a rosary." (Sachs 1940: 89)
		The artist of ancient Greece "...interpreting in their art their impression of daily life..." show clappers of wood, bone, or ivory, many decorated with the head of Hathor, goddess of heaven, joy and death.

	Review: Issues in Organology
		Baines’s approach is more humanistic and positive than divisive: where Hornbostel and Sachs plowed through the field of instruments, nudging them into separate piles based on minute distinctions, Baines appears to gather up similar items, say ‘shawms,’ based on common characteristics (including social functions and performance techniques) in a variety of cultures.
		The emphasis is on instruments as artifacts; this emphasis is further strengthened by the presence of two “reference aids” in the back of the volume: a history and list of musical instrument collections around the world, by Laurence Libin, and a translation of Hornbostel and Sachs’s 1914 article setting forth their classification scheme.
		This approach works best in areas of historic or prehistoric diffusion, such as the Eurasian cultures documented in his earlier volumes.

	Talk:Aerophone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Well, Erich von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs specifically cite the harmonica (and so by extension all free reeds) as an example of a free aerophone in the original 1914 version of their scheme.
		Since the reed, not the air, produces the tone, it seems to me to be a blown idiophone.

		are ‘...concussionidiophones or clappers, two or more complementary sonorous parts struck against each other.’(Von Hornbostel and Sachs 1961:14) Sachs adds that instraments of this type are extensions of striking or clapping hands or stamping feet.
		Sachs notes that ‘The clapper seems to have been an instrament frequently associated with the worship of Hathor and probably every woman had her clapper to worship the goddess, as today every Cathothic woman owns a rosary.’(Sachs 1940:89)
		After the demise of classical civilization there is a time gap of several centuries in the knowlege of the development of musical instraments.

	The Classical Free-Reed, Inc. Taxonomy of Musical Instruments
		The Austrian musicologist, Erich Moritz von Hornbostel (1877-1935), and his German colleague, Curt Sachs (1881-1959), proposed in 1914 a system of classification for musical instruments which has been criticized and changed in details through the years, but never supplanted.
		Curt Sachs invented the term "plucked idiophone" for the instrument, which produces sounds due to the rigidity and elasticity of the material from which it is made.
		The following chart -- of my own design -- (which depicts the position of the free-reed instruments in relation to the entire body of musical instruments) is based upon their work.

	Classifying Musical Instruments
		The other way, first published in 1914 by Erich von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs, is to group instruments according to how their sounds are produced.
		Classify the instruments of the orchestra (see Orchestral Instruments), or the instruments in a group you are familiar with, according to Hornbostel and Sach's system.
		All the strings are bowed lutes (except for the harp - a harp - and the piano- a struck zither).

		Using the latter as a launching pad the system developed in 1914 by German-born Erich von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs is based on acoustic principles.
		This classification system is generally accepted and is the one we have decided to use to classify and associate our native or indigenous instruments.
		In this list we have included instruments still played today, instruments found up until fairly recently, and instruments which fell into disuse a long time ago; also included are instruments and toys used for different purposes.
