Den Begründern und Protagonisten der Vergleichenden Musikwissenschaft wie Otto Abraham, Carl Stumpf, Erich Moritz von Hornbostel oder etwas später Curt Sachs ist es zu verdanken, dass sich neben der philologischen auch eine musikwissenschaftliche Beschäftigung mit Indien in der akademischen Welt etablieren konnte.
Die von höchsten staatlichen Stellen vereinbarten und finanzierten und vom Berliner Haus der Kulturen der Welt organisierten Indien-Festspiele in Deutschland 1991/92 dürften auf absehbare Zeit ein singuläres Ereignis in der Rezeptionsgeschichte indischer Musik in Deutschland bleiben.
Damit wurde von offizieller indischer Seite der stetig gestiegenen Resonanz vor allem von indischer Musik und indischem Tanz in Mitteleuropa Rechnung getragen und eine zentrale Vermittlungs- und Organisationszentrale für indische Kultur geschaffen.

During the 17th and at the beginning of the 18th century Baruch Spinoza (1632 – 1677) and Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz (1646 – 1716) attempted to grapple with the epistemological and metaphysical problems raised by Descartes and therefore led to a development of the fundamental approach of Rationalism especially in continental Europe [8].
Like Christian von Ehrenfels, he was a student of Brentano and was essentially inspired by his functionality psychology.

 Symposium on "Future Developments in Musicology"
In the second half of the 19th century a musicological discipline labelled „systematic musicology" was established by, most of all, Hermann von Helmholtz and Carl Stumpf.
Erich Moritz von Hornbostel who had worked in close cooperation with Stumpf for a decade or so, after World War I concentrated on his ethnomusicological and comparative studies.
Since Stumpf died in 1936, and Hornbostel as well as other researchers left Germany to escape the Nazi regime, there was not much left of systematic musicology by the end of World War II.

 Reinhold Sedlácek Home Page - Musical Instruments Classification
The Austrian musicologist, Erich Moritz von Hornbostel (1877-1935), and his German colleague, Curt Sachs (1881-1959), proposed in 1914 a system of classification for musical instruments which has been criticized and changed in details throughout the years, but never completely replaced.
The imperative for a Typology of folk musical instruments, identified by Oskár Elschek and Erich Stockmann 1969 is one of the informing themes of the series Studia instrumentorum musicae.
Symbolic taxonomies in the form of ideograms which could be used to represent structural details, such as the shape of duct flute mouthpieces, were advocated by Elschek 1969 as an aid to comparative analysis and the establishment of types and variants of instruments; such sketches were also used by other authors in this series.

 Curt Sachs
He was one of the founders of modern organology (the study of musical instruments), and is probably best remembered today for co-authoring the Sachs-Hornbostel scheme of musical instrument classification with Erich von Hornbostel.
In 1913, Sachs saw the publication of his book Real-Lexicon der Musikinstrumente, probably the most comprehensive survey of musical instruments in 200 years.
In 1914 he and Erich Moritz von Hornbostel published the work for which they are probably now best known in Zeitschrift für Ethnologie, a new system of musical instrument classification.

The first field recordings coming into the Phonogramm-Archiv were made in 1902 by Felix von Luschan, the director of the Berlin Ethnographical Museum, during an expedition to Turkey, and by the linguist and africanist Carl Meinhof in East Africa (today named Tanzania).
It was thanks to Erich Stockmann that the cylinders as well as 1383 shellac discs from the old stock of records were kept as well as possible.
As a result of the very harmonious German-German cooperation between Erich Stockmann on the one side and Kurt Reinhard and Dieter Christensen on the other, a quite effective exchange programme was established with the aim of copying the cylinders.

This ethnocentric approach combined aspects of ethnology, anthropology and psychology, and was much in favour with European scholars, such as Lach, Stumpf and Hornbostel.
This approach filtered through to North America, where the early ethnomusicologists such as Benjamin Ives Gilman, saw the potential of his work, on Chinese music performance, 'as material for a comparative psychology of that element of our sensations of sound which is known as the quality of pitch'.
The cylinders and discs provided the 'raw' materials for grand-scale projects such as Phonogramm-Archiv of the Psychological Institute of the University of Berlin founded by Carl Stumpf and whose director from 1905-1933 was Erich M. von Hornbostel.
