Publisher's Synopsis

This volume first addresses crucial problems in the history of ancient and medieval theory of music, searching for the appropriate technical concepts and tonal structure with which to understand medieval music. The second section presents the documentary foundation for Professor Crocker's work on the medieval sequence, and includes 'The Troping Hypothesis', one of the first and most famous musicological exercises in deconstruction.
