a book cover for the sound of waves by yukio mishima with an image of a wave

The Sound of Waves by Yukio Mishima Interestingly, Mishima has written at least one other book about the ocean, which i guess is not a huge surprise in how pivotal it is in the Sailor Who Fell from Grave with the Sea. Could this be to do with his nationalistic ideas about Japan and WWII? After all, the ocean played a huge role in the Pacific Theatre of WWII, with almost all fighting done on water.

Pitch is a measure of how high or low a sound is and depends on the sound wave's frequency. A high-pitched sound is made by something vibrating rapidly, such as a violin string or air in flute. A low-pitched sound is made by something vibrating slowly, such as a cello string or a tuba. Trained musicians are capable of detecting subtle differences in frequency, even a change as slight as 2 Hz.
