The Science of Music
We are always in the midst of an endless universe of sounds
and noises that surround us everywhere. The sound of the woods, the murmur of
the water, the bird's song, the signal of the sirens, the sound of the engines,
the noise of the streets and produced by the everyday human activity, as well
as other such manifestations, constitute the vast sound universe without of
which life would be unthinkable.
Nature and the surrounding world are therefore the source of
the sounds; even the depths of the seas and oceans - considered until recently
as empires of silence - are not exempt from the presence of various sound.
This impressive sound universe, greatly amplified by man's
mind and hand, through many instruments producing sounds and noises, is the
field from which music, the art of sounds, selects and takes the raw material ,
which is then processed and organized in that expressive sound language able to
communicate ideas, thoughts, feelings, emotions…
It is therefore the role of music to organize and process in
artistic forms raw material from nature and transforming into the language of
sounds, a specific means of communication and impression aimed at the subtle
spheres of human consciousness and psyche.
The transformations of the raw material that music assumes
in the process of creation and interpretation starts from the elements that
science provides us about the sound - especially physics (acoustics) and
mathematics. They pursue and treat the sound phenomenon from the moment of its
occurrence in nature - as a physical process - and up to the sensory effect
that it produces upon us.
