Acoustical Design of Music Education Facilities.
Edward McCue, Richard H. Talaske · 1990
As students overcome the purely technical limitations of their instruments, they begin to develop an awareness of their acoustical environment. The maturing musician learns to exploit the acoustical environment as a component of musical expression, and for the professional musician, the acoustical response of a room becomes the very warp into which the threads of music are woven. Unfortunately, an unresponsive or inappropriate acoustical environment can distort the meaning of a music phrase or gesture.
