More Recent Developments

A summary of our state of knowledge regarding the musical acoustics of brass instruments was recently given by Campbell [73].

Recent research by Cullen et al. [98] and Gilbert et al. [163,165] 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 [188,187,189,252,537,326,336,346,545,546,547,454].
