Quoted text:

Schneider added that even marriages were accompanied by group-songs during the wedding night, as were the funerals with their choral prayer-songs.

Can you help us find the source and page number(s) in the text, so we can add the full citation in a footnote with page number? It’s probably in Marius Schneider, “Primitive Music,” pp. 1–82, in Egon Wellesz (ed.), Ancient and Oriental Music, (London: 1957), probably around either pp. 38f. or p. 4.
