| Summary | "The Art of Music: Vol. 01 (of 14), A Narrative History of Music. Book 1, The Pre-Classic Periods" edited by Daniel Gregory Mason is a comprehensive historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume serves as an introduction to the narrative history of music, exploring its origins and development through significant periods and styles up until the pre-classical era. The work likely aims to provide insights into the evolution of musical forms and practices as well as the influential figures within the music world. At the start of this extensive volume, the introduction lays the groundwork for the exploration of music as an art form, distinguishing it from other visual arts and discussing the innate human desire for order and expression. Readers are informed about the initial stages of music, beginning with primitive forms, the early civilizations that influenced musical practices, and the importance of rhythm, melody, and harmony. The book promises to delve into the intricacies of musical development, including early European choral music and the rise of polyphony, setting the stage for a richly detailed narrative that will guide both music lovers and practitioners through the historical landscape of music.
