How have scientists of the 17th and 18th centuries - including Newton, Leibniz and Euler - busy with musical questions? The young physics occurs then besides mathematics, which is closely linked to the musical elementary teaching since antiquity. On his interdisciplinary foray into the history of science, the book in front of both known and unknown sources whose mathematical content is included in the analysis. Based on the primacy of the music and of the idea of harmonic equations leibnizianischen a uniform background is designed to represent the diverse theoretical approaches, which illuminates the historical relationship between mathematics and music from aristoxenischer and less from Pythagorean perspective.
