Je voudrais juste faire remarquer que les petits symboles que j'ai invente il y a deja 20 ou 25 ans ne pretendent pas remplacer la notation traditionnelle qui existe deja pour le bodhran (j'ai ouvert et examine le document "Standardised bodhran notation")
A cette epoque, je jouais le bodhran en sessions dans un pub a Paris, le "Quiet man" et frequentais des associations ou clubs folk. J'etais totalement fascine par cette percussion surtout pour sa technique particuliere.
Je me suis rendu compte que les debutants avaient du mal a comprendre le sens des coups, c'est pourquoi, naivement, j'ai imagine ces symboles qui representaient le Tipper et ajoute aux extremites, une "virgule" qui indiquait de maniere evidente le sens (avant-arriere) des coups.
Apres j'ai cree d'autre symboles: roulements, main gauche, etc...
Je n'ai pas raffine cette methode, j'ai essaye de la rendre la plus simple et naturelle possible. J'ai pu ensuite a l'occasion d'une "semaine irlandaise", evenement
organise a cette epoque a Paris, tester ces signes grace a un groupe de quatre eleves.
Les commentaires et observations furent tres positives de la part des eleves. On commence lentement et apres ca s'accelere...
Cela pourrait, sans faire conccurence aux "partitions" standart etre une alternative pour la comprehension de la manipulation de l'instrument.
Malheureusement,je ne sais pas lire ni ecrire la musique. Je joue et compose d'oreille, mais j'encourage tout le monde a apprendre a lire et ecrire la musique.
C'est indispensable.

Michael,

Hope you do not mind, but since I don't speak French, I took the liberty of using the http://www.altavista.com babelfish translation site and this is what it came up with

Notes, comprehension of the symbols 4 Hours, 20 ago Minutes Karma: 0
I would like just to point out that the small symbols that j' have invents there are already 20 or 25 years do not claim to replace the traditional notation which already exists for the bodhran (j' opened and examines the document " Standardised bodhran notation") At that time, I played the bodhran in sessions in a pub has Paris, the " Calm man" and attended associations or clubs folk. J' stays completely fascine by this percussion especially for its technique particuliere. I realized that the beginners had of the evil has to include/understand the direction of the blows, c' is why, naively, j' have imagines these symbols which represented Tipper and adds at the ends, a " virgule" who indicated obvious manner the direction (before-arrear) of the blows. After j' have creates d' another symbols: bearings, left hand, etc… I n' do not have refines this method, j' have tries to make it possible simplest and natural. J' could then has l' occasion d' a " week irlandaise" , event organize at that time has Paris, to test these raised signs thanks to a group of four. The comments and observations very positive on behalf of were raised. One starts slowly and after Ca s' accelerate… That could, without making conccurence with the " partitions" standart to be an alternative for the comprehension of the handling of l' instrument. Unfortunately, I cannot read nor to write the music. I play and compose d' ear, but j' encourage everyone has to learn has to read and write the music. C' is essential. welcome comments comments welcome I' m working one year english translation off this message Michel
