The writer feels a study of this kind is valuable as
a means of achieving an accurate understanding of the history
of artistic practice. This understanding in turn enables
the student to evaluate ·and compare styles and periods in an
intelligent and logical manner.
The temporal scope of this paper prohibits an exhaustive
examination of each period in music history. There are
many excellent studies available to the student which cover
the individual periods in a detailed and comprehensive manner.
It is the particular hope of the author that this study
will broaden the cultural outlook of the music student and
create a desire to further richen his knowledge and understanding
of music and its relationship to esthetic philosophy
and the other fine arts.
