What is Musical Acoustics? Insights from a Retired Physics Professor

  • Thread starter DGMegli
  • Start date
In summary, musical acoustics is the study of the physical properties and principles behind the production, transmission, and perception of sound in music. It combines elements of physics, mathematics, and engineering to understand how instruments and voices create and manipulate sound waves, as well as how listeners perceive and interpret them. A retired physics professor can offer unique insights into the intricate relationships between musical instruments, acoustics, and human perception, shedding light on the science behind the beauty of music.
