How written music started submitted by pk on July 11, 2012, 12:37pm Wonderful picture book on the origins of written music. The drawings - think of collages made from torn paper and other materials - are beautiful and dreamy. This covers how people slowly converted from learning music by listening to sharing music with written notes, so the song could be preserved. Great information, entertainingly told.
