Sinossi
Excerpt from Sound and Its Relation to Music
Sound is always produced by the vibratory motion of particles of matter, either in a mass or as individuals.
Musical sound, or tone, is produced by regular and periodic vibrations, and non-musical sound by irregular vibrations; but the lines of demarkation between the two are not sharply drawn, and the musician may employ for special effects many kinds of sound usually Classified as noise.
Some medium is necessary for the transmission of the sound from its origin to the ear of the auditor. This medium is generally the air, in which the sound travels in waves, each consisting of the sum of a condensation and a rarefaction.
In this transmission, the air-particles also move in vibra tions, The sound-waves form a constantly enlarging sphere; and their motion is generally perceptible only to the sense of hearing.
