From Scientific Instruments to Musical Instruments: The Tuning Fork,
the Metronome, and the Siren

This talk analyses the way in which nineteenth-century acoustical
instruments used to standardise musical performance and measure pitch
and beat were a century later put to use as musical instruments
themselves.
