Covers much of the acoustics a student needs, without mathematics
or scientific background. Choice Outstanding Academic Title A
survey of intervals and scales, tone pitch, loudness and time in
Western music raises many questions about the hearing mechanism and
throws doubt on the conventional role of harmonics. James Beament's
account of how musical sounds are coded by the ear and the brain's
processing units, provides answers to most of these questions. It
concludes that music started with simple instruments which voices
imitated, and that the need to know sound direction determined the
characteristics of hearing. This book will interest students,
practising musicians and music psychologists, and assumes no
scientific knowledge. The late ProfessorSir JAMES BEAMENT was a
distinguished scientist and musician, who taught and examined music
students at Cambridge University.
