This work describes acoustics and the factors to be considered in constructing a room with good sound quality. Intonation, tuning and temperaments of classical music, environmental ise, vibration control, sound measurement, sound systems, acoustic models, and acoustical design for various purposes, including acoustics for chamber music, synagogues, churches, and classrooms, are among the topics. The work looks at places like Clemens Theatre, Congress Hall, Binns Rehearsal Room, and Philharmonic Hall as models of small and large buildings with excellent acoustics. Many diagrams and other illustrations enhance the text.
