While working on the database of Popular Music Schools, I came across a piece with a bio of the child prodigy Cecil Cowles (1893-1968) which stated that:

"In recent years [1920s-1940] Miss Cowles has been active in the field of composition, particularly in Oriental music."
A San Francisco Chronicle piece about Cecil Cowles from 17 June 1923 says: "The other occasion was a recital of her own in which she played her Song Without Words, In a Rickshaw , Chinese Dance and Valse Caprice..."

"Fifty Local Prodigies: 1906-1940"

The main thesis of my piece “Orientalism, Perpetually Foreign Musics, and Asian Exclusion” is that that the systematic exclusion of Asian/American musics led to a vacuum filled by racial fantasy works composed and performed by white Americans in both classical and popular musics.

Normalize not centering Western Chord labels in Music Theory. In quintal harmony, it'd be a C2; In a quartal one it's a D5/2; not sus chords at all. Parallel seconds (and ninths) are way common in Eastern Orthodox traditions.

"The notations of znamenny polyphony require a special approach to their transcription; but when correctly read the music of the ‘scores’ abounds in harsh sonorities in the form of extended parallel seconds & fifths.”

Brazhnikov, qtd in Swan "Russian Music & its Sources..." p45
“The voices enter at the interval of the second and, within a short period of time, four more vertical intervals of the second appear in a row. In the process, the voices cross.”

Vladislav Uspensky, quoted in Johann von Gardner's "Russian Church Singing" Vol. 2, pg. 316

Apparently there were organs on planes.

"An organ was installed on a Northwest Stratocruiser in the 1950s through an arrangement with local musician Swanee Swanson. The organists received free flights to New York and other East Coast destinations."

Welsh Harp tablature from the *Robert ap Huw manuscript* (1613). The manuscript is the oldest extant source of primarily Late Medieval eisteddfod repertory that dates to 1340-1500 and was compiled by Robert ap Huw (c.1580-1665).

Short segment on the *Robert ap Huw manuscript* in Rhodri McDonagh's wonderful "Welsh Trad Music | A Beginner's Guide" video (cued up to that segment below). The whole vid is worth a watch and is only 24 minutes.

One of the things I love about Georgian Harmony is that it's based on what's essentially close to a functionally 7TET/EDO collection of pitches. Many global harmonic systems are built on different tuning systems than those in what's typically referred to as Western harmony.

Just looking the bi/polymusical course offerings at Thai Universities (sample below) in a Dissertation from 1998.

Bi/polymusical education ecosystems are far more common outside of Europe and North America.
