More Recent Developments

A summary of our state of knowledge regarding the musical acoustics of brass instruments was recently given by Campbell [72].

Recent research by Cullen et al. [98] and Gilbert et al. [162,164] has been concerned with artificial mouth experiments to verify a theoretical model of vibrating lips, and to calibrate the model to realistic playing conditions. These data can be used in the construction of improved lip-valve models for virtual brass instruments. Additional recent literature relevant to brass instruments includes [189,188,190,253,538,327,337,348,547,548,549,456].
