It traces the development of ancient melodic notation from reconstructed origins, through various adaptations necessitated by changing musical styles and newly invented instruments, to its final canonical form. It thus emerges how closely ancient harmonic theory depended on the culturally dominant instruments, the lyre and the aulos. These threads are followed down to late antiquity, when details recorded by Ptolemy permit an exceptionally clear view. Dr Hagel discusses the textual and pictorial evidence, introducing mathematical approaches wherever feasible, but also contributes to the interpretation of instruments in the archaeological record and occasionally is able to outline the general features of instruments not directly attested. The book will be indispensable to all those interested in Greek music, technology and performance culture and the general history of musicology. 606 $aMusic, Greek and Roman$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMusic theory$xHistory$yTo 500 606 $aMusic theory$xHistory$y500-1400 615 0$aMusic, Greek and Roman$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMusic theory$xHistory 615 0$aMusic theory$xHistory 676 $a780.938 700 $aHagel$b Stefan$0473380 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791129303321 996 $aAncient Greek music$9227009 997 $aUNINA
