Beschreibung

In this book the tools of spectral analysis are applied via graphics to musical sounds, especially those coming from a piano, with emphasis on the visualization of musical sounds rather than the mathematics behind it. The aim is to give a different and insightful view of musical instruments.

Über den Autor

David M. Koenig was born in Columbus, Ohio and lived in the nearby town of Grove City until age 17. He attended Bates College and the University of Chicago where he graduated with a B.S. in Chemistry. After obtaining a M.S. in Chemical Engineering at the University of Connecticut he received a Ph.D. in chemical engineering from The Ohio State University. He worked at Corning, Inc. for 27 years in the area of process control and analysis and wrote a book on that subject in 1991. After retirement he wrote a book on process control and then got interested in applying the analysis tools to the piano which led to this book.

Delwin D. Fandrich is Piano Research, Design and Manufacturing Consultant at Fandrich Piano Company.
