Science, strings & symphonies

"Two groups of instruments use strings as the primary source of sound: those in which plucking set the strings in vibration, and the bowed strings. This program shows how the demand for more powerful sounds was met, and examines the instruments of Stradivari to determine what science can and cannot reveal about their magic. It also examines the ways in which scientific methods complement the skill of craftsmen in making instruments."--Container.
