The Structure of Musical Sound is about science from the point of
view of musical sound. It is also a book about musical sound from
science's point of view. First and foremost, however, it is a
science text for nonscientists.
You, the reader, will be introduced to the methods of science;
and you will be shown how these methods are used to discover more
about musical sound. You will be an active participant in both of
these quests, and as a result you will become a more "scientific"
person than you might have realized possible.
Parts of musical sound have scientific explanations. Examples of
these parts include the rules for the formation and propagation of
sound waves, the operation of musical instruments as they produce
their sounds, and the acoustic conditions for good listening to
musical sound in rooms and halls. The Structure of Musical Sound
explains all of these scientific aspects of music.
Questions are included throughout the book. They will challenge
you to demonstrate your understanding of the ideas just presented.
The solutions, not just the answers, to these questions are
provided at the end of this book.
