Aristoksenos
Translation examples
aristoxenus
Antiikin Kreikkalaisessa musiikin teoriassa aiolinen oli eräiden myöhäisten kirjoittajien kuten Kleonideen käyttämä vaihto­ehtoinen nimi sävel­lajille (tonos), jota Aristoksenos oli nimittänyt alemmaksi lyydiseksi.
In the music theory of ancient Greece, it was an alternative name (used by some later writers, such as Cleonides) for what Aristoxenus called the Low Lydian tonos (in the sense of a particular overall pitching of the musical system—not a scale), nine semitones higher than the lowest "position of the voice", which was called Hypodorian.
