Abstract

The former isolation of Russia has made many scientific works and results unknown to researchers in the Western countries. This is unfortunate, as the history of musical acoustics in Russia shows many interesting ideas and pioneer results reached by highly talented and enthusiastic scientists. Best known is probably Lev Termen with his ‘‘theremin’’—the first application of electronic technology to musical art. A. V. Rimski‐Korsakov, one of the most distinguished Russian acousticians, started his scientific career with investigations of stringed instruments. This paper presents a bibliography of Russian‐Soviet publications on musical acoustics (in English translation), covering the period 1885–1994.
