{"product_id":"ancient-greek-music","title":"Ancient Greek Music","description":"\u003cp\u003eAncient Greece was permeated by music, and the literature teems with musical allusions.  For most readers the subject has remained a closed book.  Here at last is a clear, comprehensive account that presupposes no special knowledge of music.  Topics covered include the place of music in Greek life; instruments; rhythm; tempo; modes and scales; melodic construction; form; ancient theory and notation; and historical development.  Thirty surviving examples of Greek\n\u003cbr\u003emusic are presented in modern transcription with analysis, and the book is fully illustrated.  A brief Epilogue sets Greek music in the wider context in a border zone between Afro-Asiatic and European\n\u003cbr\u003eculture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44157149085934,"sku":"9780198149750","price":206.86,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780198149750.jpg?v=1706204508","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/ancient-greek-music","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
