The musical language Elements of Persian musical language: modes, rhythm and syntax
In treating the subject of musical language, a Persian musician would be intrinsically drawn to the structural similarities between the Persian music and language. Indeed Persian music and language are extremely related in their metrics, intonations and structural phrases (syntax). Although we will draw upon this relationship, our aim in this article is to present “music as a language,” c...
متن کاملDesign and Use of Some New Digital Musical Instruments
This article presents some facts about the use of gesture in computer music, more specifically in home made instruments dedicated to performance on stage. We first give some theoretical and practical ideas to design an instrument, in the following areas: the sound, the gesture and the mapping. Then, we introduce three examples of digital instruments we have created, focusing on their design and...

متن کاملEigenvalues and Musical Instruments
Most musical instruments are built from physical systems that oscillate at certain natural frequencies. The frequencies are the imaginary parts of the eigenvalues of a linear operator, and the decay rates are the negatives of the real parts, so it ought to be possible to give an approximate idea of the sound of a musical instrument by a single plot of points in the complex plane. Nevertheless, ...
متن کاملThe Mathematics of Musical Instruments
This article highlights several applications of mathematics to the design of musical instruments. In particular, we consider the physical properties of a Norwegian folk instrument called the willow flute. The willow flute relies on harmonics, rather than finger holes, to produce a scale which is related to a major scale. The pitches correspond to fundamental solutions of the one-dimensional wav...
