Michaelides, Solon. The Music of Ancient Greece: An Encyclopaedia. London: Faber & Faber, 1978.
-
An encyclopedia of Greek musical terms, directed mostly towards students of ancient Greek music but also as a reference book to those who are interested in the subject.
-
The encyclopedia is as comprehensive as possible in regards to Greek musical life. Topics covered include musical terms, instruments, dances, musical theorists, writers on music, composers, philosophers associated with music, and other topics as they pertain to Greek musical life. The topic of Greek musical theory is dealt with only briefly because of the complexities of opinions on the subject, however, sources are given where appropriate.
-
Entries are in alphabetical order by Greek terms or names. An index at the end lists entries alphabetically in Greek.
