Recent Developments

A summary of our state of knowledge regarding the musical acoustics of brass instruments was recently given by Campbell [29].

Recent research by Cullen et al. [44] and Gilbert et al. [64,65] 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 [71,70,72,92,189,112,114,116,192,193,194].
