SynopsisIn this book, two scholars join together to explore the musical life of ancient Greece, focusing on the Greek stringed instruments and, in particular, on the lyre family. This book is distinguished by the equal emphasis it gives to pictorial sources of information and to literary descriptions of the instruments in Greek poetry and drama., No ancient culture has left us more tantalizing glimpses of its music than that of the Greeks, whose art and literature continually speak to us of the role of music, its power, and its significance to their society. In this book two scholars--one of music and one of classics--join together to explore the musical life of ancient Greece, focusing on the Greek stringed instruments and, in particular, on the all-important lyre family.
