For this reason it is regarded bymany as the most beautiful of all the tours. These arematters of taste. It is very difficult to cultivate it deep,and there is always a danger of it going faulty, indefinite,nasal. Straight Hollow Roll, even when deep, is alwayssung on one note; a good falling roll sounds better, butthe ideal is the deep, bent variety, rising and falling inseveral keys. CHAPTER XIV SIMPLE, DISCONTINUOUS TOURS IN BELL-LIKE FORM THE characteristic of these tours lies in the factthat the syllables follow one another in a certainunconnected manner, so that there is a pause,a tiny interval, as it were, discernible between each. In. the Roll tours the pause or space is filled up, bridgedover, by the intervening r, whereas in the bell-liketours there is no r. To this division of tours belong Bell, the high-tonedtour, Hollow Bell, somewhat lower, deep Schockel,Gluck and Flutes. The ground tone rests on i, as in Schwirre and 77 78 THE ROLLER CANARY Bell Roll. The consonants are 1, h, d; the syllablesformed by combination, therefore, are lilili-hihihi—dididi. The quality depends upon the fullness and purity ofthe vowel sound, the force of the consonants, 1, h, d, andthe measure of the pauses. These pauses regulate thetempo, the beat, in other words the rate at which thesyllables are repeated. THE HAMMERING BELL Lilili gives the best effect, if not too slow, and theeffect is also good with hihihi if the beat be not too slow,otherwise the tour is jerky. Dididi is only good whenthe d is feeble, and the i pure and soft; the beatshould be fast. If the vowel is hard and the consonantis strongly marked, th
