The collection, established in 1996, came about through a joint effort of Carleen Hutchins and other representatives of the Catgut Acoustical Society (CAS), Stanford’s Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA), and Virginia Benade. MARL consists of the research materials from acousticians around the world who were dedicated to studying different aspects of violin making.
The Musical Acoustics Research Library (MARL) has its origin in the vast acoustics research collection of the Catgut Acoustical Society (CAS). These les were assembled over many years by CAS and housed in the home of its founder Carleen M. Hutchins. In the late 1980s, CAS began an e ort to establish an appropriate long-term residence for the collection, such that it could serve as a valuable.
But I will also mention the biannual journal of the Catgut Acoustical Society as well as “Research Papers in Violin Acoustics 1975-1993” (Acoustical Society of America, 1997). They contain over 120 articles with research results on topics such as sound radiation, the bowed string, bridges, soundposts, plate vibrations, air resonance, wood, varnish and psychoacoustics.
Research papers in Violin Acoustics 1973-1995. Vol 2 by Carleen Maley Hutchins Book description RESEARCH PAPERS IN VIOLIN ACOUSTICS 1975-1993. Carleen M. Hutchins, Ed., Virginia Benade, Assoc. Ed. Contains 120 research papers with an annotated bibliography of over 400 references. Introductory essay relates the development of the violin to the scientific advances from the early 15th Century to.
Nevertheless, between 1948 and 2009, Hutchins crafted nearly 500 instruments and published more than 100 technical papers, bringing new scientific rigor to the art of violin-making. Furthermore, Hutchins fulfilled a centuries-old dream of luthiers—she crafted a set of instruments that maintain the timbre of the violin over its entire range, thereby creating a true violin family.
Whitney was tired of weekly deadlines but held off answering. Since she and her husband were planning trips to Venice and Milan for their anniversary, however, she could agree to Hutchins’ request to deliver Research Papers in Violin Acoustics 1975-1993, which Hutchins had just finished editing, to Francesco Bissolotti, luthier and founder of the professional violin-making school in Cremona.
The female pioneer who revolutionized violin acoustics and built the first violin octet. From the time of Stradivari, the mysterious craft of violinmaking has been a closely guarded, lucrative, and entirely masculine preserve. In the 1950s Carleen Maley Hutchins was a grade school science teacher, amateur trumpet player, and New Jersey housewife. When musical friends asked her to trade a.
