Typology

Experimental protocol

Musical notes are considered the letters of the musical alphabet which, being different from each other, allow every composer to write songs. The musical notes are 7: Do (C), Re (D), Mi (E), Fa (F), Sol (G), La (A) and Ti (B), and with these 7 notes all existing songs are written. But why do they have different sounds?
To better explain the main difference between musical notes we are going to build a pan flute.
