Event Details

The Science of Sound is a fun, interactive concert that explores the four main sources of sound – impact, friction, turbulence, and vibration. Lively musical selections include movie music, ragtime, and folk songs. The musicians demonstrate their own instruments alongside some lesser-known sound makers, such as the singing bowl, one-stringed bass, and guiro. With quick experiments, an on-screen spectrum analyzer, and engaging discussions throughout, this dynamic program is a multidisciplinary exploration of science and music.
