  • Violin String Harmonics: Understanding the 440 Hz Fundamental & 880 Hz Second Harmonic
    The fundamental frequency of a violin string is the lowest frequency at which it can vibrate. The second harmonic is the next higher frequency at which it can vibrate, which is twice the fundamental frequency.

    Therefore, if the fundamental frequency of a violin string is 440 Hz, its second harmonic will be 2 * 440 Hz = 880 Hz.
