Cloth, gilt cover-initials, 4to, 25 cm, xxviii, 512 pp. From the preface: ".in this volume we present an opening on to the world of Arab music theory. Through the 341 texts included, the reader may encounter a musical thought revealing itself in a multitude of nuances that touch upon the various domains of the intellectual activity of many generations. This musical thought concerns the whole range of history, philosophy, cosmology, medicine, theology, etc.: it implies a vast interest in music and a profound veneration for it and its mysteries. In this enterprise, we have attempted to render the encounter with this enormous and multilateral musical thought as accessible as possible, thinking particularly of those who may be hampered by the language barrier. We have accordingly included diverse informative elements in the descriptions which may enable the reader to form an overall image of Arabic music theory from its beginnings to the end of the nineteenth century."
