![]() The impression of a sound greatly depends on the situation in which it is generated and heard. However, my interpretation of the word context is broader, more multi-vocal, and multi-sensorial in which where the sound is resonated, and how it is produced are also contexts of the sound. It gains meaning and becomes an expression of something only when it attains a function within a context. As a term of music, context tends to remind us of a context of musical notes such as harmonic progressions, motivic developments, or contrapuntal movements. A sound itself is a mere oscillation of air pressure. The relation between sounds and contexts are interdependent a group of sounds forms a context and a context assigns a certain meaning to a sound and affirms its existence.
