  1. In which of the gollowing we find difference in the sounds made by sitar and veena ?
    1. pitch
    2. quality
    3. Both (1) and (2)
    4. None of these
Correct Option: B

Quality is that characteristic of a musical sound which enables us to distinguish between the sounds produced by two different musical instruments or two different persons although their pitch and loudness may be same. It is because of this characteristic that we are able to recognize the voice of a known person over the telephone or to distinguish between the sounds produced by different musical instruments in an orchestra. The quality depends primarily on the waveform of the sound.
