Review
"It is hard to overestimate the value of this first book to present Greek music accessibly to both classicists and to musicologists whose speciality is not in this period....Should become a model for the kind of scholarly writing that illuminates rather than obfuscates and teaches rather than confounds. Both general and academic readers at all levels."--Choice
"There are few if any kinds of music or musical aspects of the ancient Greek world that West does not at least touch upon....West has been able to provide detailed commentary on several topics....Martin West has given us a useful, comprehensive treatment of the subject."--Notes
"An enlightening study which will be of interest both to students of medical history and of social anthropology in its ancient Greek context."--The Greek Gazette
"It's no exaggeration to say that Martin West's Ancient Greek Music is a book we have been desiring for centuries: a clear, complete, unprejudiced, thorough, rigorous and deep account of the evidence for the basic realities of ancient music."--ARION
Product Description
Ancient Greece was permeated by music, and the literature teems with musical allusions. Here at last is a clear, comprehensive, and authoritative account that presupposes no special knowledge of music. Topics covered include the place of music in Greek life, instruments, rhythm, tempo, modes and scales, melodic construction, form, ancient theory and notation, and historical development. Thirty surviving examples of Greek music are presented in modern transcription with analysis, and the book is fully illustrated. Besides being considered on its own terms, Greek music is here further illuminated by being considered in ethnological perspective, and a brief Epilogue sets it in its place in a border zone between Afro-Asiatic and European culture. The book will be of value both to classicists and historians of music.
