of Western civilization into a single melody!”\u003cbr\u003e The most friendly music history that reads the era and sound as living history.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Music is the first art created by humans.\u003cbr\u003e From the signals that primitive humans used to shout for survival to the ancient Greeks' attempts to explain the order of the universe through musical scales, sound has always moved alongside the human worldview.\u003cbr\u003e However, when we talk about the history of music, we still only think of the changes in style and great composers, such as “Renaissance was like this, Romanticism was like that,” and we do not ask the question of why music was created that way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 《A Humanistic History of Music》 begins with that question. \u003cbr\u003eRather than viewing music as merely a branch of art, it shows that behind the moment when music and sound were born, the vast structures of the times, including politics, science, philosophy, religion, and economics, were at work.\u003cbr\u003e Music is never a product of independent emotions, but rather a civilization that most quickly and honestly records the spirit of the times.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book does not simply explain a specific era in a long, drawn-out manner.\u003cbr\u003e The book follows the principles of music that evolved along with civilization, suggesting that as the way humans understand the world changes, so too does music, allowing readers to read the history of Western music in one sitting.\u003cbr\u003e Rather than fragmentary knowledge that only distinguishes eras, it connects music with humanistic insight into “what kind of world did people live in during that era?”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the Middle Ages, Hildegard of Hibon composed original hymns in an era when women's activities were strictly restricted. \u003cbr\u003eIt was born out of the conflict between the church power structure and mystical theology at the time.\u003cbr\u003e The fact that the 'love' sung by the troubadours was in fact a political code to maintain the order of feudal power, and that the mathematical structure of Notre Dame Cathedral played a decisive role in the birth of polyphonic music, also show that music was not viewed simply as art.\u003cbr\u003e As times change, so does music.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, if you know music, you can see through that era.\u003cbr\u003e It's okay if you don't know much about classical music.\u003cbr\u003e You will come to realize that music up to now is no longer just background music, but the clearest record left to mankind.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e You can

Egyptians.\u003cbr\u003e Thanks to this, we can read today about the thoughts of the Greek people of that time about music.\u003cbr\u003e To them, music was both art and mathematics, a science connected to astronomy.\u003cbr\u003e Furthermore, they added philosophical thoughts about music's place in the universe, its influence, and its social uses.\u003cbr\u003e You can see the thoughts of contemporary philosophers on music in works such as 『Republic』 written by Plato and 『Politics』 written by his disciple Aristotle.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.24, from “Babylonia, Egypt, and Ancient Greece”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe 13th century, which can be seen as the golden age of Ars Antiqua, is the time when polyphonic music began to flourish in earnest.\u003cbr\u003e It was the time when the journey to break away from the monotony of the melody and find the beauty of Mars began in earnest.\u003cbr\u003e Especially during the century or so since construction of Notre Dame Cathedral began in Paris, France in 1163, the musicians of the time also created a musical style that was equally magnificent, grandiose, and grandiose.\u003cbr\u003e We call them the 'Notre Dame School'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e At the time, musicians added new parts to the existing monophonic Gregorian chant to create decorative and ornate organum, an early form of polyphonic music.\u003cbr\u003e The polyphonic music born in this way led to a gradual evolution that overcame medieval traditions and led to the musical idiom of the next era. \u003cbr\u003eAmong the recorded polyphonic music surviving today, this period is considered the most important turning point.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- p.45, from \"Like Notre Dame Cathedral! 13th-Century Ars Antiqua\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The mass production of sheet music brought competition to the market, and the beneficiaries were ultimately the general public who wanted to listen to and play music.\u003cbr\u003e Thanks to the printing press, music was no longer the exclusive domain of a select few, but rather a commodity for everyone.\u003cbr\u003e By the end of the Renaissance, musical scores printed with letterpress were being published in Rome, Nuremberg, Lyon, Louvain, London, Venice, and Paris.\u003cbr\u003e However, the church's hymnals still adhered to the handwritten method.\u003cbr\u003e Nonetheless, the invention of printing deserves to be remembered as an event that broadened and deepened the history of Western music.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.75, from “Development of Musical Notation Printing for Everyone”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOne of the great characteristics of the Baroque era was the invention of opera.\u003cbr\u003e Of course, it is not that there were no works in previous times that played a role similar to opera.\u003cbr\u003e If we look at just the two core elements that make up opera, drama and song, we can trace the roots of opera back to ancient Greek theater.\u003cbr\u003e Medieval hymns praising God and Renaissance vocal works were all on the journey to opera.\u003cbr\u003e The work of Sister Hildegard of Bingen, which we looked at in Chapter 2, can also be seen as a form that serves as the basis for opera.\u003cbr\u003e William Shakespeare's plays also provided important clues to the birth of opera.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.120, from “I don’t know the text, but I know the opera!”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The symphony can be said to be a genre that encapsulates the essence of Western music history. \u003cbr\u003eOf course, other musical forms have also produced countless outstanding works, but few genres bring together as many diverse musical elements as the symphony.\u003cbr\u003e In Korean, it is called 'symphony', but it is more commonly called 'symphony'.\u003cbr\u003e The word's etymology, which originated from ancient Greek and French, means harmony, togetherness, and diversity.\u003cbr\u003e The harmony of many instruments coming together to create a single piece of music is the essence of a symphony.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.163, from “Highlights of Classicism, The Birth of the Symphony”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The German songbook published in Germany in the late 18th century became so popular that by the early 19th century, more than 100 copies were being sold per month.\u003cbr\u003e At that time, song was a new and popular genre in Europe.\u003cbr\u003e This trend was greatly influenced by poetry that was popular among the middle class and contemporary citizens. \u003cbr\u003eThis is because the art of singing songs by adding beautiful melodies to verses of poetry has become more abundant along with the development of poetry literature.\u003cbr\u003e Especially during this period, there was a tendency to compose songs based on poems in the form of a series containing the story's introduction, development, turn, and conclusion.\u003cbr\u003e The beginning can be found in Beethoven's \"To a Distant Beloved\" composed in 1816.\u003cbr\u003e The later musician Robert Schumann also loved this piece very much.\u003cbr\u003e He even showed his deep affection for this piece by citing its themes in his own works, “Fantasia in C major” and “String Quartet No. 2.”\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e --- p.198~199, from “The Romantic Four: Schubert, Schumann, Chopin,

story of Western music history not told in textbooks\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhen we study music history, we have only heard things like, “This era had this style” or “This era had this type of composer.”\u003cbr\u003e But no one tells us in detail why that person created that kind of music, what happened during that time, or in what environment the music was born.\u003cbr\u003e This book does not view genius musicians simply as genius artists.\u003cbr\u003e It delves into the social, political, technological, economic, and professional environments surrounding the great musicians of the era and how they influenced their music.\u003cbr\u003e In the Middle Ages, only the church could read and write, so all music was created within the church.\u003cbr\u003e In it, a female composer named Hildegard created her own unique hymns at a time when women's activities were strictly restricted. \u003cbr\u003eWe can learn specifically about the environment in which she worked and how Hildegard's music differed from other music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e During the Renaissance, printing technology developed and the social and economic situation changed significantly.\u003cbr\u003e It used to take several days to copy a single sheet of music, but with the development of printing technology, it became possible to mass-produce music scores.\u003cbr\u003e Composers like Dufay and Palestrina were able to spread their music to many countries, and thus the profession of composer began to take root for the first time.\u003cbr\u003e During the Classical period, as cities grew and people began to enjoy leisure time, the cultural institution of public concerts emerged.\u003cbr\u003e Until then, music was considered the property of the nobility, but with the advent of public concerts, anyone could see a performance if they paid the money. \u003cbr\u003eThanks to this environment, the three representative figures of Classicism, Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven, were able to create forms such as symphonies and sonatas and engage in popular activities.\u003cbr\u003e In this way, this book shows musicians not as geniuses born on their own, but as professionals who seized new opportunities amidst the changing society of the time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eA liberal arts music course that explains for the first time “why this kind of music came into being”\u003cbr\u003e A three-dimensional reading of Western music history that even those who don't know music can easily learn.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 《A Humanistic History of Music》 goes beyond simply explaining the history of Western music with simple knowledge, but shows in detail the environments in which musicians lived and how those environments gave birth to music. \u003cbr\u003eThe reality that Hildegard was only allowed to compose within the monastery, the clergy-centered rules, and the church structure that monopolized Latin clearly show why it was difficult for women to engage in musical activities during the Middle Ages.\u003cbr\u003e This specificity allows the reader to feel as if they lived through the period, rather than just knowing the background information.\u003cbr\u003e For those who have consistently studied music history, this book fills in the missing links, and for those who are new to music history, it presents a new standard for how music history should be read.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You can read people's lives through music.\u003cbr\u003e This is because it convincingly shows through historical events of each era that the times create people and that people leave behind music.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, it is a record that contains the worries and changes of the times in which people lived. \u003cbr\u003eFor readers who love music, it will provide the joy of learning the context of their favorite works, and for readers unfamiliar with music, it will open a new door to understanding Western history.
