Paperback. Condition: Used; Good. Add a splash of blue to the shelf with this 1962 edition of The Pelican History of Music I. The '1066' of our music lies somewhere in the Middle Ages, when the Western tradition seemed to spring, fully armed with tonality, harmony, and rhythm, from the head of mediaeval man.It is easy to forget that musical language had been evolving, both in the East and in the West, for at least five thousand years before music in Europe began to assume the laws we are tempted to regard as perfect and unalterable. This first volume traces the story of music from the earliest known forms as far as the beginnings of the polyphonic period in the first half of the fifteenth century. Enjoy this wonderful musical history! Title: The Pelican History of Music I Author: Edited by Alec Robertson and Denis Stevens Publisher: Pelican Books Publication Date: 1962 Format: Softcover Condition: This book is in good condition for its age other than some minor signs of wear, tanned pages.
