Very technical look at sound and musicality.  |
|
Not recommended for the faint hearted! This book gives very technical explanations (including mathematical equations) of sound, the creation of sound, harmonics, tuning systems and accoustics. I would guess his background is as an organist and this colours much of his work. However, as a singer, I still found it very interesting as it enhanced my understanding of vocal harmonics and how we hear sound and determine subjectively whether it is "musical".

An especially well-written and entertaining introduction to musical acoustics. I keep a copy among my musical reference books.Also recommended: PENTATONIC SCALES FOR THE JAZZ-ROCK KEYBOARDIST by Jeff Burns.
