Musical Statics is a book written by John Curwen in 1897 that aims to explore the relationship between the principles of acoustics and various musical concepts such as chords, discords, transitions, modulations, and tuning. The author attempts to explain how the laws of physics and acoustics influence the way music is composed, performed, and perceived by the listener. The book delves into the science behind sound waves and how they interact with different musical instruments, as well as the mathematical and physical principles that govern the harmonies and dissonances in music. Curwen also explores the history of tuning systems and how they have evolved over time. Overall, Musical Statics is a fascinating exploration of the science of music and how it relates to our understanding and appreciation of this art form.As Used By Modern Musicians.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
