Application of computer simulation of Chua's circuit as a tool for the generation of musical sounds is described. The method provides a variety of sounds produced and simple control of generation process. Signals from nonlinear Chua's circuit represent a surprisingly rich and novel family of periodic and chaotic musical sounds. Properties and behaviors of the digital model are studied. Practical implementation is presented.
