Air Columns And Toneholes- Principles For Wind Instrument Design ★ Verified Source

1. Introduction The sound of a wind instrument is generated by the oscillation of an air column confined within a tube. While the mouthpiece or reed initiates the vibration, the geometry of the air column—its length, diameter, shape, and the placement of toneholes—determines the instrument’s pitch, timbre, playability, and intonation.
