Five lectures on the Acoustics of the piano
Royal Swedish Academy of Music
This volume contains five lectures given at a public seminar at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, May 27, 1988. The lectures are based on accumulated experience in piano design as well as recent experimental and theoretical studies -all presented in a popular style.
The seminar day was preceded by two days of discussions between the lecturers and invited representatives from piano manufacturers. Two representatives from Steinway & Sons, Daniel T. Koenig, Vice President of Manufacturing, and William Y. Strong, Director of Research and Development, joined the speakers in a closing panel session at the seminar, answering questions from the audience and pondering future improvements in piano design.
