Hello Ron, On another list, I posted about the Ancient Greeks and their belief that music can be used to *cause* a desired emotion in the audience, by set down formulas (cookbook engineering). To the Ancient Greeks music was not an art, but a science with defined laws of cause and effect. Here's my reference to a book written around 300 to 400 AD: On Music in Three Books, by Aristides Quintilianus Translation, with Introduction, Commentary, and Annotations by Thomas J Mathiesen Yale University Press, copyright 1983 New Haven and London ISBN: 0-300-02893-8 Best, "The Other" Stephen Stubbs Champaign, IL USA -- References 1. http://wp.me/p15OyV-sa To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
