Context of Multiplicity
Timbre refers to the quality of sound that distinguishes one instrument or voice from another. Timbre is a powerful worldwide musical property. It is of great importance to Japanese music, for instance, where singers and instrumentalists are trained to create a multiplicity of different timbres with the same instrument or voice. Traditional Gidayu-bushi singers can even customize the timbre of their voices to establish gender and age.
