DESCRIPTION: Noam Amir --- The motivation for this study came from the informal \nobservation that didgeridoo tones seem to sound \npleasant only over a span of less than an octave, while \nbrass wind instruments of various types are found to be \nuseful and pleasant over a much wider range. We \ntherefore set out to explore the relationship between tone \nheight and its perceived pleasantness and compare these \nevaluations both on a set of didgeridoos and on a bass \ntrombone playing identical notes over a range slightly \nlarger than one octave. Twenty listeners compared \nrecordings of short tones from G1 to B2, played both on a \nbass trombone and a set of tubular didgeridoos, by \nproficient players. The listeners were asked to rate each \nnote on a sliding scale from “very pleasant” to “very \nunpleasant”. Results showed that overall, the didgeridoo \ntones were found to be significantly more pleasant than \nthe trombone tones. Surpisingly, the trombone tones were \nfound to be more pleasant as tone height increased, \nwhile no correlation between tone height and \npleasantness was found for the didgeridoo.\n
