Capercaillie The melody of “Skye Waulking Song” is based on a pentatonic scale (a scale with five notes per octave).

and 4 show the waveforms for the flute‚ violin‚ piano‚ and oboe. The Fourier Series can be used to explain why each of the instruments have their own unique sound. The flute‚ violin‚ piano and oboe have different combinations of frequencies as each waveform is made of an unique combination of sine and cosine waves‚ and this creates distinct waveforms and allows each instrument to have a unique sound. Recall that the formula of the Fourier Series is f(x)=a_0+∑_(k=1)^∞▒(a_k cos〖πkx/T〗+b_k sin〖πkx/T〗

percussionists‚ this generalization is spot on. These people call themselves "drummers"‚ and in doing this‚ they limit their musical capabilities to three instruments: the snare drum‚ bass drum‚ and drum set. As kids advance through school‚ the drummers get weeded out. The parts become more difficult‚ more practice time is expected‚ and the instrument variety expands. By ninth grade‚ only percussionists remain. Percussionists who can alternate between playing timbales‚ bata drums‚ and shakarees without
