Anthropologists and ethnomusicologists assert that there is no society without song, and more specifically, there is no ritual or celebration without accompanying sound. The production of sounds in social contexts is very ancient. Here, we report on the study of a seashell from the decorated cave of Marsoulas and demonstrate that the Magdalenian occupants of this site transformed this shell into a wind instrument. It is one of the very rare examples, if not the only one for the Paleolithic period, of a musical instrument fashioned from a large shell, and the first conch shell of this use thus far discovered. We already know that prehistoric people transformed many shells into portable ornaments and that they thus attributed substantial corporal symbolism to them. This seashell horn, with its unique sonority, both deep and strong with an enduring reverberation, sheds light on a musical dimension until now unknown in the context of Upper Paleolithic societies.

Smartphone is the manifestation of the technological developments that can narrow space and time. Smartphone is not only used as a means of communication but as a means of entertainment for many kinds of applications that is presented by the developers. Android is an operating system that is widely used by several manufacturers of smartphones today. Application is a program which is designed to perform a function with specific goals and purposes. Tanjidor is the musical art of Betawi. Tanjidor did not come originally from Indonesia, but from Portuguese language in a word Tangedor which means “stringed musical instruments”. Tanjidor itselfis played in several musical instruments category, namely wind instruments (in particular instrument it is called as mouthpiece) like clarinet, trombone, tuba, saxophone, and trumpet. In addition, there is also wind instrument musical which played by hit it (in a particular type it is called a percussion), like snare drum, tenor drum, bass drum, cymbals and drums. Android-based Tanjidor equipment learning application is used as the entertainment media and also aims to preserve the Indonesian art heritage by inserting Tanjidor instruments in Android smartphon. Therefore, Tanjidor musical art does not disappear over the time.

Since the Covid-19 virus spreads through airborne transmission, questions concerning the risk of spreading infectious droplets during singing and music making arose. To contribute to this question and to help clarify the possible risks, we analyzed 15 singing scenarios (1) qualitative, by making airflows visible, while singing, and (2) quantitative, by measuring air velocities in three distances (1m, 1.5m and 2m). Air movements were considered positive, when lying above 0.1 m/s, which is the usual room air velocity in venue, such as the concert hall of the Bamberg Symphony, where our measurements with three professional singers (female classical style, male classic style, female popular music styles) took place. Our findings highlight, that high measurements for respiratory air velocity while singing, are comparable to measurements of speaking and, by far, less than coughing. All measurements for singing stayed within a reach of 1.5m, only direct voiceless blowing achieved measurements at the 2m sensor. Singing styles, which use plosive sounds i.e. consonants more often, such as rap, produced the highest air velocities of 0.17 m/s at the 1m sensor. Also, singing, while wearing a facemask, produces no air movements over 0.1 m/s. On the basis of, our recent studies on measurements of airflows and air velocities of professional singers and wind instrument players, as well as further studies on CO2; measurements in room settings of music activities, we publish our results, in consideration of further up-to-date research, in our frequently updated risk assessment (first published in April 2020). On this behalf, we suggest 2m radial distances for singers, especially in choirs.

The priority direction in modern conditions of musical and pedagogical activity is the training of highly qualified specialists. The main factor of successful methodological work in the field of wind instrument performance is the study of scientific achievements in physiology, pedagogy, and psychology. Currently, in the pedagogical practice of wind art, there are a number of issues that require a conceptual understanding of the physiological components of the voice and articulation apparatus, as well as the dependence of sound quality on these organs. The subject of the analysis is the correct functioning of the larynx as a resonator. The analysis of scientific and theoretical developments in the field of sound formation on wind instruments allowed us to explain a number of pedagogical approaches in the practice of musical and performing arts
