Girolamo Mei (1 gen 1519 anni – 1 gen 1594 anni)

Descrizione:

Writer of treatises on Italian literature before taking up Greek music as his main subject. In 1573 he completed a large treatise titled De modis musicis antiquorum (On the Musical Modes of the Ancients). This scholarly dissertation, which draws on classical writers and also summarizes contemporary music theory, deals both with the tuning and structure of the modes and also with their expressive and ethical effects.
