Here's a PBS website that lists all the Nova video's:
http://www2.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/novalistbytitle.html
This is what they had to say about the video, "What is Music?":
What Is Music?
NOVA explores the science of musical sound--from what
makes a classic violin to how the human brain perceives
music. Bells, trumpets, human voices and computers all
perform.
Original broadcast date: 11/21/89
Given the fact that the video is over 10 years old, I wouldn't be surprised
if it were no longer available.
BUT......
WGBH, in Boston, has an international website and, under SCIENCE, they list
this particular video. It appears that you MAY be able to get the video
through them.
The URL below is their contact page:
http://www.wgbh.org/wgbh/wgbhinternational/contact.html
Nancy Barker and Betsy Kane LeBlanc are sales reps for WGBH
Their e-mail addresses are at the top of that page and a click of the mouse
will put you in a mode where you can e-mail them an enquiry as to whether
or not the video is available through them.
Lots of luck.
