Primitive Music: An Inquiry into the Origin and Development of Music, Songs, Instruments, Dances, and Pantomimes of Savage Races - Cambridge Library Collection - Music
Richard Wallaschek
A Victorian study of the music, instruments and dance of the world's indigenous peoples from which the author, a pioneer in comparative musicology, develops his theory of the origin of music based on rhythm and an innate sense of time, rather than the melody of speech.
