Synopsis
Excerpt from Introduction à la Vie Musical
Je voudrais que telle fût l'utilité de ce travail. Sa science est légère, mais, par là même, à la portée de tous. Il s'inspire, pour son principe, des ouvrages de vulgarisation si justement en faveur de notre temps, puisque leur honneur inat tendu, tout en élevant le niveau du savoir gêné ral, fut de devancer la science précise dans la conquête du rêve.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a historical and technical introduction to music, designed for those passionate about music but whose knowledge of it largely comes from practice rather than theory. The author takes the reader through the origins of music, from its earliest identifiable forms in ancient Greece up until the birth of modern tonality. This historical framework gives way to an examination of musical fundamentals such as the Pythagorean scale and the principles that govern harmony. Through these, the book explores the origins of our present musical system, which the author argues has its roots in both the natural properties of sound and the artistic innovations that arose in the Middle Ages. The book concludes with a thought-provoking look at how our understanding of music is constantly evolving and how the concepts and techniques of the past continue to inform the music of the present day. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282199463_0
