| Abstract | Syntagma Musicum is a book by the German musicologist Michael Praetorius, originally published in Wittenberg and Wolfenbüttel in three parts between 1614-1620. It is one of the most commonly used research sources for the music theory of the seventeenth century. The second work De Organographia illustrates and describes musical instruments and their use; becoming a valuable resource for the research and reconstruction of early instruments. |
