The origin of Greek music is also shrouded in mystery. Legend has it that Apollo is in charge of Music and has nine Muse goddesses, so music is also called music or Musik. Among the Greek musical instruments, there is a V-shaped double-barreled flute called Aouros, a Lyra, and Zittel, a stringed instrument similar to the guitar, all of which were imported from Egypt or Arabia. In the life of ancient Greeks, the position of music was very significant. On the basis of oriental music spread from Egypt and Arabia, they gradually developed and changed and formed their own music. Music in ancient Greece is closely related to poetry and drama. In their two charming homeric epics and many famous plays, the significance of music is reflected. At that time, the songs performed by some famous folk singers in society were also of great significance to the formation and development of ancient Greek music. Ancient Greek music has made great achievements in many aspects. In the 6th century BC, Pythagoras, a great philosopher and mathematician in ancient Greece, first explained the pure law theory with a single stringed instrument called Monochord, and calculated all the intervals used at that time according to the length of the strings. The invention and application of Pythagoras temperament is a major breakthrough in music theory. Secondly, the ancient Greeks also invented alphabet notation. There are also many bold innovations and creations in the production of musical instruments, and a number of musical instruments have been invented that have never been seen before. Ancient Greek music includes not only solo lyric music accompanied by instrumental music, but also drama music and dance music. Generally, these kinds of music are mainly monophonic music, and most of them are religious subjects in content. The music of ancient Rome mainly followed the great achievements of ancient Greek music. At that time, the music was mainly played in worship, wedding banquets and the triumph of the army. Since the third century AD, ancient Rome has expanded its power to the outside world and carried out brutal aggression and plunder on neighboring city-states. Many excellent musicians and singers in ancient Greece have become slaves of ancient Roman emperors, nobles and slave owners, so music has become a special entertainment tool for the ruling class. However, the music culture of ancient Rome did not stagnate following the ancient Greece, and some folk songs, wedding songs, soldiers' songs and music and dance developed to some extent. In the process of continuous development, ancient dramas sung in Latin appeared. In addition, the appearance of brass instruments in the army is also one of the main characteristics of ancient Roman music.
