Resonant means something vibrates at a given frequency. Usually if you can get an object to resonate at its resonant frequency - it will disintegrate !

For example - if you tap a wine-glass, it 'rings' - that's it's resonant frequency. Now - take a speaker and play the exact frequency through it, while holding it close to the glass - after a few seconds it will shatter because the glass vibrates too fast.

What does it mean by 'above and below resonance?

'Above resonance' means a frequency higher than the resonant frequency of a system, while 'below resonance' means a frequency lower than the resonant frequency. At resonance, a system vibrates with maximum amplitude, making these concepts important in understanding the behavior of vibrating systems like simple harmonic oscillators.

How does resonance affect the sound quality of an instrument?

Resonance does not affect a violin. Resonance is the violins ability to vibrate with the tone that is played. With a high resonance, a violins sound will be heard long after the note is played. With a low level of resonance, a violin will sound dull and immature. Resonance affects the tone quality of a violin, but the violin has a direct relationship to its resonance.
