![]() ![]() In musical terminology, resonance is the reinforcement and prolongation of sound or musical tone by reflection or by sympathetic vibration of other bodies. For sound to resonate, it must be deep, clear and strong. The speed of a tuning fork’s vibrations is known as its frequency. Striking a tuning fork causes its tines to vibrate back and forth several hundred times per second, setting off a tiny, invisible hurricane. The two prongs of the fork are known as “tines.” A sound is produced by a body vibrating in sympathy with a neighboring source of sound. If something has resonance for me, it typically means that it has a special meaning or that it is particularly important to me.Īm I a tuning fork and do certain external frequencies create particular vibrations in me? And do these vibrations then set off a chain reaction? Do I walk away from a play, a painting or a piece of music better tuned? When I leave a museum after seeing an exhibition, or when I leave a theater after a performance, am I now tuned to a different frequency?Ī tuning fork is a small two-pronged instrument used to tune instruments by striking it against something to produce fixed musical pitch. One energetic being influences the vibrations of another. “This play resonated with me.” What does that mean? Why does a particular play, painting or piece of music resonate with me, and others do not? The Oxford dictionary defines resonance as, “responding to vibrations of a particular frequency, especially by itself strongly vibrating.” Resonance is what ripples and radiates when something is created. ![]()
