This classic study, now revised and updated, shows how scientific
calculations can be used to improve the understanding, design, and
tuning of woodwind instruments. A powerful tool for correcting
tuning errors in existing instruments and for creating new designs,
Nederveen's analysis has long been a standard in the field of
acoustics.
Nederveen's aim is to find systematic and accurate methods for
calculating the position and size of tone holes and functional bore
corrections for the various woodwinds. He achieves this aim and
further provides a detailed application to the design of flutes,
clarinets, saxophones, oboes, and bassoons.
An extended new chapter analyzing and interpreting recent
developments in acoustics of woodwind instruments, a list of
symbols, and a subject index complete this revised edition. This
book is a necessity for specialists in the physics of acoustics,
music teachers, and anyone interested in woodwind design.
