Samenvatting:
Until now, the problem of tuning instruments has been mainly viewed as an aspect of a phylologically correct performance practice. Besides several chapters dealing with this important latter aspect, the volume also devotes ample space also to the evolution of the tuning problem from a purely scientific point of view, starting from the Scientific Revolution and more particularly during the Enlightenment, with the decisive development of a new science: “Acoustics”. It consists of a series of articles, most already published in Italian, presented here in English translation − revised, restructured, partly rewritten, expanded (in some cases radically) − and distributed over 21 chapters.
