It was so popular in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries that Mozart, Beethoven, Handel, and Strauss composed for it; Marie Antoinette and numerous monarchs played it; Goethe and Thomas Jefferson praised it; Dr. Franz Mesmer used it for his hypnotizing Mesmerism sessions.

    GLASS MUSIC WORLD WINTER 2004 1 WINTER 2004 Acoustics of Glass Musical Paris Festival ‘05 Instruments – Program and Information – – by Thomas D. Rossing – Physics Department, Northern Illinois University Ten years have passed since I pub- lished a paper entitled “Acoustics of the glass harmonica” in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America [1]. That paper discussed the physics of the instrument we all love so well. It was reprinted in the Summer/Fall and Winter/Holidays issues of Glass Music World, and, judging from the feedback I received, fairly well received by readers of that publication. Many performing musicians have discovered that under- standing the physics of their musical instrument (whether it is a violin or an armonica) is a great help in improving their playing technique as well as devel- oping “new sounds” in their instrument.

  • Résonance Et Perception Des Harmoniques Naturelles
    UNIVERSITE PARIS VIII – VINCENNES A SAINT-DENIS UFR « Arts, Philosophie, Esthétique » Département de Musique RESONANCE ET PERCEPTION DES HARMONIQUES ATURELLES Julien GILI Mémoire de maîtrise réalisé sous la direction de M. Philippe MICHEL Année universitaire 2004 – 2005 1 Avant-propos L’élan qui a motivé ce travail pourrait se résumer à une curiosité permanente qui s’est amplifiée au fur et à mesure que je creusais le sujet des vibrations sonores et de l’acoustique naturelle. L’étude des musiques du monde et des instruments peu communs m’a fait prendre conscience que dans les cultures les plus éloignées, aussi bien historiquement que géographiquement, on retrouve des points communs surprenants, des coïncidences qui, au fond ne sont sans doute pas le fruit du hasard. Parmi ces principes universels, je me suis particulièrement penché sur le phénomène de la résonance et celui de la série des harmoniques naturelles. Je tenterai de les rapprocher dans ce mémoire en mettant en évidence leurs effets et leurs utilisations. Il n’y a pas de réel commencement à cette curiosité, mais plutôt une série de découvertes plus ou moins importantes qui, par étapes, m’ont encouragé à en savoir toujours plus. La première phase significative fut franchie grâce au travail de l’ethnomusicologue Trân Quang Hai, qui m’a d’ailleurs accordé un précieux entretien. Dans un documentaire vidéo réalisé par Hugo Zemp, il présente ses recherches sur le chant diphonique. Ce chant, qui fait entendre deux sons simultanément, m’a particulièrement intéressé et l’approche pédagogique de T.Q.Hai m’a encouragé à le développer sur ma propre voix.

  • Squeakeys”: a Friction Idiophone, for Physical Interaction with Mobile Devices
    “SQUEAKeys”: a friction idiophone, for physical interaction with mobile devices Steve Mann, Ryan Janzen, Valmiki Rampersad, Jason Huang, Lei Jimmy Ba University of Toronto http://eyetap.org Abstract—We present “SqueaKEYS”, a musical instrument application to enhance touch screens on mobile devices. Sound is generated acoustically by the sound of one or more fingers rubbing on the glass surface of a liquid crystal display screen, or the like. In this sense, the instrument is not an electronic in- strument, but, rather, a friction idiophone (e.g. in the Hornbostel Sachs musical instrument classification sense). Location sensing on the touch screen is used to frequency-shift the sound onto a musical scale depending on where the screen is rubbed, struck, or touched. In other embodiments the location of the touch is determined with sound localization by way of geophones bonded to a glass substrate, eliminating the need for a touch screen (e.g. to implement the instrument on any glass surface equipped with appropriate listening devices). Fig. 1. Franklin’s Armonica, played by classical musician Thomas Bloch. Spinning glass disks are touched by wet fingers, to make sound in a way I.
