| Notes: | "This is a publication of the acta of the second conference on Byzantine Music organized by the A.A. Bredius Foundation and held at Hernen Castle, the Netherlands, in November 1992. The theme 'Zur Erforschung der paläobyzantinischen Musikquellen' was in no way less complex and controversial than that of the preceding meeting, devoted to the problems of 'Rhythm in Byzantine Chant'. By the choice of 'Palaeobyzantine Musical Notations', the scholarly committee behind the conference wanted to address some of the most fundamental problems in Byzantine musicology, namely the origin, development, nature, purpose and function of the older musical notations." -- Introduction, p. v.
