WHAT DOES ORGANOLOGIST MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Organology

Organology is the science of musical instruments and their classification. It embraces study of instruments' history, instruments used in different cultures, technical aspects of how instruments produce sound, and musical instrument classification. There is a degree of overlap between organology, ethnomusicology and the branch of the acoustics devoted to musical instruments. A number of ancient cultures left documents detailing the musical instruments used and their role in society; these documents sometimes included a classification system. The first major documents on the subjects from the west, however, date from the 16th century, with works such as Sebastian Virdung's Musica getuscht und ausgezogen, and Martin Agricola's Musica instrumentalis deudsch. One of the most important organologists of the 17th century is Michael Praetorius. His Syntagma musicum is one of the most quoted works from that time on the subject, and is the source of much of what we know about renaissance musical instruments. Praetorius's Theatrum instrumentorium contains possibly the first pictures of African instruments in a European publication.
