On the Tuning and Stretched Octave of Javanese Gamelans
The authors fit five theoretical models to the frequency-scale (Hz) data reported by Surjodiningrat, Sudarjana and Susanto on individual instruments from their extensive measurements of the tunings of 76 Javanese gamelans. The exponential models fit best and perfectly in the case of either nearly equal-interval pentatonic (slendro) scales or unequal-interval heptatonic (pelog) scales. Further, relative to the (presumed) mild stretching of Western…
Identification and blend of timbres as a basis for orchestration
We report on a series of experiments directed toward questions concerning the timbres of simultaneous orchestral wind instruments. Following a background exposition on instrumentation and orchestration, we discuss previous experimental research on the properties of multiple timbres. To augment and explicate previous findings, we conducted two experiments: Experiment 1 was directed at subject ratings of the blend of oboe, trumpet, clarinet, alto s…
