What's the “normal” opposite of flautando?












4















I'm writing a piece in which I need string instruments to switch regularly between flautando and normal timbre. How do I denote this? Basically, I need a word which means "normal" with regard to where the bow falls.

          Normale (norm.) or ordinario (ord.) are the standard methods for marking a return to regular articulation after using an alternative technique.

            In such cases, the notation arco is typically given to request that the performers play with standard technique.



            So just as you specify flautando for some portions, simply specify arco for the other portions.

              This is not the standard notation method, though most performers would probably understand what you're trying to say.

            In doubt, you can always negate a specific playing instruction by mentioning it with a non prefix. In this case I'd probably write non flaut., if in your context ord. would not be clear enough.



            Alternatively you could consider what particular sonic quality of “normal bowing” you want to contrast against flautando. Should it be the robust sound and attack? You might alternate between flautando and pesante. You want the opposite of the sweet airiness of a flautando? You could alternate between sul tasto and sul ponticello. Etc. etc..

Laŭ la helena mitologio, Tantalo (el la greka Τάνταλος , ŝancelanta aŭ tre malfeliĉa ) estis filo de Zeŭso kaj la oceanidino Pluto, laŭ la plej divastigata versio. Li estis reĝo de Frigio [1] aŭ de la monto Sipilo, en Lidio (Malgrandazio) [2] kaj post sia morto li suferis eternan torturadon ĉe la Tartaro, la plej profunda parto de Hadeso, rezervita por la plej perversaj homoj. Tamen, kelkaj rakontoj asertas ke li estis reĝo de Argo aŭ de Korinto [3] , aŭ ke li migris norden el la monto Sipilo por akiri la tronon de Paflagonio, el kie Ilo forpelis lin pro tio, ke Tantalo forkaptis kaj seksperfortis lian fraton Ganimedon [4] , kaj tiel ofendis la diojn.
