Publisher's Synopsis
Starboard Quest- Treasure Hunt invites readers to once more climb on board a symbolic musical ship to explore the hidden worlds of frequency, sound, and vibration.
There exists an immense treasure of musical literature that has come down to us through the ages. Much of this literature has been hidden away and ignored for centuries. These writings are like treasures waiting to be discovered.
The ancients had a far-reaching musical philosophy. They saw the musical scale as a cosmological map. They developed rich and interesting musical ideas which are awaiting discovery.
They left us secret musical treasures which can only be found by those who are willing to set sail in search of them by examining and contemplating the literature they have left for us.
This illuminating information can be likened to a series of messages in bottles, set adrift on the sea of sound and left for us by the sages of sound from previous time periods.
Such men as Plato, Pythagoras, Socrates, Solomon, Martin Luther, and many more left us messages about the timeless force of music. This book delves into the thoughts and writings of the musical masters of past ages.
There are musical secrets contained in the Great Pyramid, in nature, in the human body, in ancient writings, in outer space, and within the spirits of the human race. Starboard Quest- Treasure Hunt examines these hidden gems of literature and encourages readers to seek the resplendent musical wealth of the ages for themselves.
