Musical Acoustics

Musical acoustics is the study of how sound and music are created, transmitted, and received. It involves understanding how different instruments produce their unique sounds, how those sounds travel through different environments, and how they are perceived by the human ear. It incorporates elements of physics, anatomy, psychology, and music theory, aimed at explaining why music sounds the way it does, from the pitch and timbre of a note, to the resonance of a concert hall.
