| Sumario: | The article reports on a series of experiments in Villefavard, France, seeking to discover conclusively whether small violas can produce sound as big as larger models. Topics discussed include the fixed and free parameters for all the makers' instruments, measurement of the plates' impedance, and the violas's signature modes, with some notes about their function and their relative position in the bridge admittance and internal cavity sound curve. |
