Hydraulophones: Acoustic Musical Instruments and Expressive User Interfaces Hydraulophones: Acoustic musical instruments and expressive user interfaces by Ryan E. Janzen A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science Graduate Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Toronto Copyright c 2008 by Ryan E. Janzen Abstract Hydraulophones: Acoustic musical instruments and expressive user interfaces Ryan E. Janzen Master of Applied Science Graduate Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Toronto 2008 Fluid flow creates an expansive range of acoustic possibilities, particularly in the case of water, which has unique turbulence and vortex shedding properties as compared with the air of ordinary wind instruments. Sound from water flow is explained with reference to a new class of musical instruments, hydraulophones, in which oscillation originates directly from matter in its liquid state. Several hydraulophones which were realized in practical form are described. A unique user-interface consisting of a row of water jets is presented, in terms of its expressiveness, tactility, responsiveness to derivatives and inte- grals of displacement, and in terms of the direct physical interaction between a user and the physical process of sound production. Signal processing algorithms are introduced, which extract further information from turbulent water flow, for industrial applications as well as musical applications.

As liquid sound phenomena can, for one, be used in musical instruments, the instruments and phenomena are perhaps best understood by first examining their context within the realm of existing musical instruments1. Traditionally, musical instruments have often been grouped into three categories: strings, wind and percussion. In 1703, S´ebastiende Brossard did precisely that [16] when he classified instruments in his Dictionnaire de Musique. Since then, various researchers have devised their own classification schemes to account for instruments newly discovered among cultures worldwide. In 1914, Erich von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs modified previous classification schemes, creating four main categories in an attempt to include all 1In this thesis, ideas on musical instrument organology follow the train of thought presented by S. Mann in [14] and later by Mann and Janzen in [16]. 1 Chapter 1. Introduction: Musical Instruments in All States... 2 conceivable instruments: idiophones (vibrations from the \substance of the instrument itself, owing to its solidity and elasticity ... without requiring stretched membranes or strings"), membranophones (having stretched membranes), chordophones (having long strings), and aerophones (using wind) [7, p.169]. As well, Francis Galpin (1910) and Sachs (1940) each added a category to account for instruments which made use of electricity [7, p.176][26]. Sachs used the name \elec- trophones" [26]. Among present-day organologists and ethnomusicologists, there is general agreement that this classification scheme should depend only on how sound is initially produced in the instrument [16]. For example, the fifth category, \electrophones", is reserved for instruments such as the Theremin, ondes-Martenot, and the modern synthesizer, which actually generate the sound signal source itself [16] electrically, regardless of whether electricity is used in some other fashion. An example of using electricity in some other fashion lies in a pipe organ. Even if there is an electric motor to pump wind into the organ, rather than a hand-operated blower, the pipe organ is still an aerophone. As well, it is still an aerophone regardless of whether the valves delivering wind to the pipes are mechanically, electrically, pneumatically, or hydraulically actuated [16]. The electric guitar serves as another example: Even if an effects pedal is added in order to post-process the audio signal, the electric guitar remains a chordophone. In describing the operation of an instrument, one could distinguish between how an instrument is controlled (i.e. that which comes before the initial sound production mechanism), how an instrument's sound is post-processed (that which comes after the sound production mechanism), and the physics of the sound production itself [16]. The physical state-of-matter of sound production played a role in a newer classification system proposed by Andre Shaeffner in 1932 [16], which he claimed was \exhaustive, potentially covering all real and conceivable instruments" [7, p176]. In the Schaeffner Chapter 1. Introduction: Musical Instruments in All States... 3 classification system, sound production in solid versus

  • The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a New Look at Musical Instrument Classification
    The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a new look at musical instrument classification by Roderic C. Knight, Professor of Ethnomusicology Oberlin College Conservatory of Music, © 2015, Rev. 2017 Introduction The year 2015 marks the beginning of the second century for Hornbostel-Sachs, the venerable classification system for musical instruments, created by Erich M. von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs as Systematik der Musikinstrumente in 1914. In addition to pursuing their own interest in the subject, the authors were answering a need for museum scientists and musicologists to accurately identify musical instruments that were being brought to museums from around the globe. As a guiding principle for their classification, they focused on the mechanism by which an instrument sets the air in motion. The idea was not new. The Indian sage Bharata, working nearly 2000 years earlier, in compiling the knowledge of his era on dance, drama and music in the treatise Natyashastra, (ca. 200 C.E.) grouped musical instruments into four great classes, or vadya, based on this very idea: sushira, instruments you blow into; tata, instruments with strings to set the air in motion; avanaddha, instruments with membranes (i.e. drums), and ghana, instruments, usually of metal, that you strike. (This itemization and Bharata’s further discussion of the instruments is in Chapter 28 of the Natyashastra, first translated into English in 1961 by Manomohan Ghosh (Calcutta: The Asiatic Society, v.2). The immediate predecessor of the Systematik was a catalog for a newly-acquired collection at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels. The collection included a large number of instruments from India, and the curator, Victor-Charles Mahillon, familiar with the Indian four-part system, decided to apply it in preparing his catalog, published in 1880 (this is best documented by Nazir Jairazbhoy in Selected Reports in Ethnomusicology – see 1990 in the timeline below).

PIPE ORGAN AT CHRIST KING PARISH The Organ Committee at Christ King Parish was formed in 2015 at the request of the Pastoral Council and the Worship Committee to evaluate the condition of our current organ, plus its present and future role in our community. This report will provide details on the failing condition of our organ, the cost for refurbishment vs the cost of replacing the instrument and the vetting of organ building companies. In 2007, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) issued a document entitled, “Sing to the Lord: Music in Divine Worship”. Drawing from several centuries of organ use in the Catholic Church the Bishops stated the following about organs: 87. Among all other instruments which are suitable for divine worship, the organ is “accorded pride of place” because of its capacity to sustain the singing of a large gathered assembly, due to both its size and its ability to give “resonance to the fullness of human sentiments, from joy to sadness, from praise to lamentation.” Likewise,” the manifold possibilities of the organ in some way remind us of the immensity and the magnificence of God” 88.

No apology is needed, I hope, for issuing in this form the substance of the series of articles which I contributed to the Bible Educator. Some of the statements which I brought forward in that work have received further confirmation by wider reading; but some others I have ventured to qualify or alter. Much new matter will be found here which I trust may be of interest to the general reader, if not of use to the professional. I fully anticipate a criticism to the effect that such a subject as the development of musical instruments should rather have been allowed to stand alone than have been associated with Bible music.

  • Trinity's Organ
    Trinity’s Organ The organ at Trinity was dedicated on October 23, 1994. In many ways it can be thought of as a reflection of our own congregation. There are 2,395 pipes in the organ. Trinity congregation, in 1994 was very close to that number in membership and has since then far surpassed it. The pipes in the organ actually form a “congregation of singers” made up of many different shapes and sizes. Some are short, some are tall. Some sing high, some sing low. Some are loud, some are soft. Each person in our sanctuary can combine his or her voice with others to offer up prayers and songs of praise. Each pipe in the organ “building” works along side of others to produce sounds for accompanying our songs of praise. We each have a mouth to sing God’s praise. Each pipe in the organ also has a mouth. The straight edge at the top of a pipe’s mouth is called the upper lip. The bottom edge is the lower lip. Pipes have “feet”, “bodies”, “ears”, and “tongues.” The pipes “sing” in much the same way as humans. Sound is produced when air causes something to vibrate. The sound then comes out through a mouth for all to hear. The pipes receive their breath for singing from a windchest. The sound produced by the pipes is thus a sound that is vibrant – “alive”! The organ at Trinity is an instrument allowed by God to be built for worship – an instrument whose breath will combine with ours to set in motion pipes for praise.
