How music and mathematics relate

CD Audiobook

How music and mathematics relate / David Kung.

Kung, David T., (author,, lecturer.). Teaching Company, (publisher.).

Summary:

"Understanding the connections between music and mathematics helps you appreciate both, even if you have no special ability in either field--from knowing the mathematics behind tuning an instrument to understanding the features that define your favorite pieces. By exploring the mathematics of music, you also learn why non-Western music sounds so different, gain insight into the technology of modern sound reproduction, and start to hear the world around you in exciting new ways"--Website.
