contents M. E. Larsen evaluated the Wronskian determinant of functions $\{\sin(mx)\}_{1\le m \le n}$. We generalize this result and compute the Wronskian of $\{\sin(mx)\}_{1\le m \le n-1}\cup \{\sin((k+n)x\} $. We show that this determinant can be expressed in terms of Gegenbauer orthogonal polynomials and we give two proofs of this result: a direct proof using recurrence relations and a less direct (but, possibly, more instructive) proof based on Darboux-Crum transformations.
