Muzyka w przestrzeni akustycznie ekstremalnie aktywnej
Journal Title: Audiosfera. Koncepcje-badania-praktyki - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Reverberation is a chief phenomenon determining the quality of our acoustic sensations. Concert halls designers have the goal of enabling musicians to employ this effect. Nevertheless, even such dedicated spaces include acoustic phenomena distorting the final shape of sound. Various types of sound wave reflection depend on concert hall size, the hardness and texture of building materials, the arrangement of furnishings, and audience presence: factors determining the quality of sound. Such interaction increases in enclosed, atypically constructed spaces that generate effects available for use in musical performance, e.g. the recording of jazz trumpeter Tomasz Stańko’s Music from Taj Mahal and Karla Cavas. Intensive reverberation allows new sound qualities to emerge in the acoustic space, which suggests that influenced by the discussed acoustic phenomena, sound may become to an extent independent.
