This book is the first of two volumes offering a selection of Greek
writings on music, newly translated into English and equipped with
an extensive commentary. This volume contains passages from Greek
poets, historians and essayists, evoking or describing aspects of
the practical activities of musical performance and composition,
together with excerpts from philosophers and social critics who
comment on the moral, education and aesthetic dimensions of the
art. Music was of fundamental importance in the culture of ancient
Greece. Its nature and significance cannot now, perhaps, be fully
recaptured, but we have a rich fund of information about the Greek
experience of music, its forms, its meanings, its social roles, and
the practical details of its composition and performance.
