Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores how modern music emerged from Christian church music, primarily focusing on the period from the first century to the late ninth century. Rather than continuously evolving from ancient Greek music, the author demonstrates that modern music developed independently from… the rules and constraints imposed by the Greeks. The author argues that when Greek musical theory was revived in the Middle Ages, it hindered the progress of the nascent modern music. The book demonstrates how, after composers began to experiment with harmony and incorporate instruments, a truly new and distinct kind of music emerged that would culminate in the sophistication of our modern music. 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.
