Word origin
The word 'tune' originated from the Old English word 'tunian', meaning 'to sound a musical note'. Over time, it evolved to refer to both musical melodies and the process of adjusting musical instruments. The concept of tuning has been essential in music for centuries, allowing musicians to create harmonious sounds by adjusting the pitch of their instruments.
