    Review :
    "The 2023 Nicholas Bessaraboff Prize for the most distinguished book-length publication in English is awarded to ... The Science of Brass Instruments ... . This collective effort of scholarship represents the culmination of decades of sustained, original, wide-ranging research into the science underpinning many facets of the world of brass instruments, including performance, design, timbre, acoustics, early history, and taxonomy. ... the authors have produced a significant, authoritative, and pioneering contribution to organological literature."
