Physical Modeling of the Ancient Greek Wind Musical Instrument Aulos: A Double-Reed Exciter Linked to an Acoustic Resonator [PDF]
IEEE Access, 2021 We present a simulation method for the auralization of the ancient Greek double-reed wind instrument Aulos. The implementation is based on Digital Signal Processing and physical modeling techniques for the instrument’s two parts: the excitation ...

A Digital Synthesis Model of Double-Reed Wind Instruments [PDF]
EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2004 We present a real-time synthesis model for double-reed wind instruments based on a nonlinear physical model. One specificity of double-reed instruments, namely, the presence of a confined air jet in the embouchure, for which a physical model has been ...

Risk of obstructive sleep apnea lower in double reed wind musicians. [PDF]
J Clin Sleep Med, 2012 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is caused by a collapse of the upper airway. Respiratory muscle training with a wind instrument (didgeridoo) in patients with moderate OSA has been previously shown to improve OSA symptomology. However, a survey of orchestra members did not indicate a difference in OSA risk between wind and non-wind instrumentalist.

Quasistatic nonlinear characteristics of double-reed instruments [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2007 This article proposes a characterization of the double reed in quasistatic regimes. The nonlinear relation between the pressure drop, Δp, in the double reed and the volume flow crossing it, q, is measured for slow variations of these variables.

Cloning and characterization of a Phragmites australis phytochelatin synthase (PaPCS) and achieving Cd tolerance in tall fescue. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The production of phytochelatins (PCs) provides an important means for plants to achieve tolerance to cadmium (Cd) toxicity. A reed gene encoding PC synthase (PaPCS) was isolated and its function tested through its heterologous expression in a strain of ...

Re-Contemplating the Classification of Multiple Reeds
Asian-European Music Research Journal, 2021 The 2011 Revision of the Hornbostel-Sachs Classification of Musical Instruments by the MIMO Consortium categorises the “reedpipes with double (or quadruple) reeds” (422.1) according to the number of pipes, bore shapes, and finger holes, as it does to ...

A new classification of wind instruments: Orofacial considerations
Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2019 Background/objective: Playing a wind instrument implies rhythmic jaw movements where the embouchure applies forces with different directions and intensities towards the orofacial structures.
