SUMMARY:SASA Mini Reading Group: An Introduction to Ancient Near-Eastern Music ‘Theory’: Understanding Musical Inscriptions
DESCRIPTION:Previous participation and previous knowledge not required. \nFor those new to this subject\, the field of “Archaeo-Musicology” is engaged in the study of ancient music informed by archaeological finds. In the ancient Near-Eastern (Mesopotamia) the musical information is primarily deduced or retrieved from instruments\, instrumental inlays\, wall reliefs\, and iconography. On occasion one will find information on cuneiform tablets that discuss some aspect of music and this Reading Group/Master Class will focus on some of these music ‘theoretical’ tablets. \nIn the following weeks we will be looking at the 3 ‘major’ (most cited) cuneiform tablets that inform scholars about ancient Near-Eastern music theory. \n3-Week Text-In-Translation Reading Group \nThursdays @ 3 pm EST \nJan. 13th \nJan. 20th \nJan. 27th \nParticipants only need to register for each Reading Group once\, you will receive links to our Live Syllabus where readings and discussions are posted in the confirmation email. \nBy RSVPing\, you are agreeing that a recording of the event can be shared with others who RSVPed.
