Introduction
This project is an opportunity for you to explore the
scientific principles behind musical instruments.
As a part of this project, you can create your own
musical instrument that is one of the more fun and
rewarding means of fulfilling the project requirements. |

Project
description
After collecting
information about different musical instruments and how they
work, you focus in one specific instrument and try to make a
working model of that instrument. Later, you can demonstrate
your creation in class by playing a simple tune or whatever your
creation is capable of. A written report must also be
done, but it can be short (2-4 pages) describing the design, how
your instrument produces sound, and the instrument's frequency
range. You might digitally sample a note or two from your
instrument and look at the spectrum and see if you can relate it
to the physical characteristics of the instrument. |
