	Early music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Early music is a term used to describe pre-Classical Western music, from the earliest written music to 1500 at the earliest (Judd, 1998, p.4) and the end of the Baroque era in about 1750 at the latest.
		Fragments of Greek music are, however, extant, most notably scraps from tragedy (a choral song by Euripides for his Orestes and an instrumental intermezzo from Sophocles' Ajax), a few hymns by Mesomedes of Crete (second century AS), and the Seikilos epitaph (dated variously between the 2nd century BCE and 1st century AD).
		All music of antiquity is monophonic, as polyphony is an invention of the Middle Ages.

	Ancient Roman Classical Music
		Most Romans, however, like most of us, prefer to believe that it was the very fusion of external influences into a "Roman" whole that defined their culture.
		Music inspired the troops before and during battles only to be overblown by military horns signaling tactical commands.
		The ancient Romans had the flute, called aulos in Greek and tibia in Latin, which could be single- double- or triple-piped, and they had multi-pipe syrinxes (Panpipes, often pictured by the ancients in the hands of Pans and now reappearing in Rome in the hands of Andean immigrants).

		Music filled the lives of the Romans -- from private nightly dining to festive public celebrations, from serious musical performances to military parades, and from solemn to wildly erotic religious rituals.
		The Roman lute predates the Medieval lute, the true forerunner of the guitar, but was itself preceded by the Greek and the Egyptian lute.
		The kithara, the "guitar" of the ancient Romans, was the premier musical instrument and was played in both serious and popular music.
