Hudební proporce starověku

Matin Celhoffer

Studie je úvahou nad možnými antropologickými a kulturními předpoklady pro etablování číselné proporce jako analogie k hudebním intervalům. Zabývá se vztahem mezi ranými projevy geometrie a aritmetiky a klade si otázku, do jaké míry tvoří tyto vztahy nutný předpoklad pro idealizované uchopení tónových struktur, jak je známe z pythagorejské tradice.

Keywords: Monochord, hudební proporce, pythagoreismus, kanon, tetrachord, tetractys

Exploring ancient musical ratios

Diese Studie geht den möglichen anthropologischen und kulturellen Voraussetzungen für die Errichtung der Zahlenverhältnisse als Analogie zum musikalischen Intervallen nach. Es befasst sich mit der Beziehung zwischen frühen Ausprägungen der Geometrie und Arithmetik, und stellt sich die Frage: inwieweit sind diese Beziehungen eine notwendige Voraussetzung für eine idealisierte Auffassung von der aus der pythagoreischen Tradition bekannten Tonstrukturen.

Keywords: Monochord, music ratio, Pythagoreism, canon, musical proportion, tetrachord, tetractys
