It's a good primer on acoustics, but this guy REALLY needs to work on HTML design. I felt like it was 1994 again.

P.S. And it's not really perfect; it seems to claim Bach invented 12-tone equal temperament.

Also, it seems to claim that Pythagoras discovered harmonic proportion
in strips of metal, when there is no simple relationship between the
length of a metal bar and its resonant pitch (it depends much more on
the thickness and flexibility).
