    Negli spartiti per violino cosa si indica con un più (+) sopra la nota?

    • L'armonico della nota stessa

    • Il pizzicato di mano sinistra

    • Che la nota va suonata con il legno dell'arco

    Correct Answer
    A. Il pizzicato di mano sinistra
    Explanation
    In sheet music for violin, a "+" above the note indicates that the note should be played with left-hand pizzicato. This means that instead of using the bow, the violinist should pluck the string with their left hand fingers while simultaneously pressing down the note on the fingerboard. This technique produces a unique and percussive sound.

    Da quale strumento nasce il sassofono per opera di Adolphe Sax?

    • Clarinetto

    • Tromba

    • Oficleide

    Correct Answer
    A. Oficleide

The oficleide is a brass instrument that was popular in the early 19th century and had a similar structure to the saxophone.

Therefore, the correct answer is oficleide.
