Yes..Composers are very aware of secondary resonances...that's one reason why so many violin pieces (concertos, etc.) are in D. The tonic is an open string, the dominant is an open string, the Vof V is an open string, and the subdominant is an ...

Have you heard Kent Negano's version?...
|
...I would prefer the LP release and will try EBay. If I can't find it in any format, I will be glad to send you a check for a good CD burn. Thanks Stan...

Actually, they don't require that much power. The lows have their own 1000 watt amps, so one need only to drive the mid/highs with one's own amp. I've heard that a good 30 watt amp can do the job. I am quite satisfied wit...

I do not a lot abound these “digital” amplifiers, never had one but I’m very negatively alarmed with this recent popularity among certain people. I have no background to seriously report about T-amps sound but I might with a full authority to testify...

so tell me... does that mean that a highly damped arm will function in the manner of a "to sound well" arm?...
|
...just a note on the dynamics question... I'm using an Ayre K1xe preamp which has a volume controle hand made at Ayre using individually soldered resisters. (Ayre tells me that that control is a large part of the cost of the whole p...

Unfortuanately, the NJ Symphony "Golden Collection" is up for sale. The orchestra paid so much for the collection, they can not pay off the debt. They are looking for high rollers who can buy the instruments, but permit the orchestr...

The New Jersey Symphony purchased a number of high priced instruments - Strads, Guanaris, etc. in what they called "The Golden Collection". They paid way too much money for the collection, but thought that the better sound and the "Mystique" of...

The dramatic differences I heard when I swapped out the Grado for the Ebony is as follows: The Grado had a decidedly "tannish" color that was accompanied by a sandy texture which filled in the "spaces" between the instruments. I should say that I w...

This really doesn't bother me. I am a professional violinist. When I play in Avery Fischer Hall my instrument sounds quit different than when I play it at home and again different still when I play it in Carnegie Hall. Instead of neutrality, perhap...

Time Allignment has nothing to do with the placement of instruments in an orchestra. Did anyone wonder why a violin playing 2nd space A sounds different that a trumpet playing the same pitch? In physics, when a string or air column in excited into ...
