Transition Note
Quoted text:
I point the interested reader to the works of McClain.[1] He may have gone too far in trying to find in the archaic Vedic, Mesopotamian, and Greek mathematics of musical temperament a conscious analog to the 25,920-year precession of the equinoxes. But his basic premise of parallels being drawn between adjusting the calendar and tuning the musical scale were certainly correct and “in the spirit” of ancient higher wisdom.
