Descripción

In this book, the author examines the role of the human voice in Ancient Greek music, theatre, and culture, combining Philology, Archaeomusicology, and Anatomy. He traces the evolution from Pythagoras to Aristoxenus’ empirical approach, emphasizing perception and experience in musical knowledge. The study explores ancient anatomical views on phonation and breathing (Hippocrates, Aristotle, Galen), the vibratory cycle of vocal cords, and concepts such as tonal height, tessitura, and vocal registers. It analyses distinctions between spoken and sung voice, intervallic and continuous movement, and the cultural significance of mousik? in education, ritual, and social cohesion. Key topics include Greek musical systems (tetrachords, scales, notation), the intermediate vocal style parakatalog? —a precursor to Renaissance recitative— and the technical challenges faced by singers and actors in ancient Greek drama. The book reviews ancient treatises (Aristoxenus, Nicomachus, Ptolemy, Aristides Quintilianus), surviving musical fragments, and the evolution of performance from Homeric aoidoi to professional soloists and choruses. It also addresses ancient Greek vocal training, health, and aesthetics, highlighting the preferred types of voices and the technical demands that shaped their repertoire. Ultimately, it reconstructs a possible ancient Greek vocal technique and its aesthetic, technical, and cultural foundations, showing its lasting influence on the history of music and theatre.
