orch is cool


This week in orchestra, when the class was tuning their instruments, i stopped early because i finished tuning. i put my instrument down in rest position with my left hand lightly touching the strings on the fingerboard. i noticed that my d string was vibrating slightly. why? because of resonance of course. someone else's d string was the same or near my strings natural frequency, which caused it to oscillate.
