Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: THE NATIONAL MUSIC OF IRELAND. CHAPTER I. PRELIMINARY REMARKS. In the absence of direct proof, and if even the light of the historic page were denied as, yet we could form, in most instances, a tolerably accurate idea of the mental intelligence attained by any people, by observing the degree of cultivation bestowed on science and on the finer arts; and the Poetry, National Music, Architecture, and Sculpture, would form so many monuments, which, to the practised ear and eye, express and trace, in impressive language, the general historic features of the people, and their acquaintance with the arts. We also reasonably infer, that when one art or science is cultivated to a higher degree, its development has the effect of refining the taste generally; and prepares it, to some extent, for the more correct perception of the other sister arts. In some instances, one art may be more cherished at first than others, owing to peculiar causes; but still the mind is thus prepared, to some extent, for appreciating the beauties of the others, which soon attain their position in that chain of science, which has been so bountifully given by Providence to man's research. Music is intimately allied to the other sciences; it teaches the properties and application of musical sounds, and their harmonic proportion, which is based on geometrical truth. The production of sound brings under our consideration the exercise of those beautiful mechanical principles in the form of our complicated musical instruments?the vibrating motion of the air, and the delicate and interesting study of acoustics, which teaches to proportion the vibrations into those magic combinations of harmonized sound, which, traversing the windings of the charmed ear, afford the highest degree of delight to th...
