What reading level is Paper On Chinese Music book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It has the seven notes, with semitones between the 3rd and 4th and 7th and 8th. This scale came from the Northern Liao dynasty, a race related to the Mongols and Munch us. This was a little hefore Guido < who died 1050) invented the stave and introduced the use of the syllables, ut, re, mi, fa, so, la; these being the first syllables of a six-lined hymn to John the Baptist. The ut was afterwards changed to the more open syllable do. Not till 1600 odd was the seventh name added in Europe by a French- man, Lemaire, who called it si. We thus find that the Chinese had the complete names for the diatonic scale 600 years before it was completed in Europe, and that China had its sol-fa system over 800 years before Curwen (about 1840) started his sol-fa system, This notation, whether Chinese or foreign, when thoroughly learned first and afterwards applied to the stave- -then called solfeggio, and the key-note always being do -makes the most expert readers at sight of any musical system. We strongly advise, in teaching theChinese, that either Ourwen's sol-fa or the Chinese JC >R be first used in teaching them to sing.
