Abstract

Although designed particularly for music students, musical acoustics courses at American universities generally draw a ‘‘mixed bag’’ of students with a rather wide variety of backgrounds. This presents some real challenges but also some real rewards. Some of the problems in teaching musical acoustics to heterogenous classes and some of the ways these problems can be dealt with are discussed. Readable textbooks, demonstration experiments, and videotapes help to challenge and motivate the students, but the best way of all to learn the subject is by doing hands-on experiments.
