If two independent teams recreate this song based on our best knowledge about how the song sounded, can you tell these renditions are two versions of the same song?
Not a perfect test (experts can recognize more similarities) but generally makes it possible to discern "we know jack shit" from "we know the melody, just maybe not exactly how the instrument sounded".
- hot_gril 4y agoI listen to a lot of old music where there are many different renditions of the same song, especially Armenian folk music that was either unwritten or transcribed later, and I agree with this metric.
- dwighttk 4y agoThe article mentions two different interpretations of the melody… one of the videos I played had both and they sounded quite different to me.
