    i'm knowledgeable enough to know that "innit" is not understandable (or proper) english, something some native speakers don't know. And you?

    yes, and:
    
    a) those are guesses as no one knows what ancient greek music sounded like - how could anyone know?
    
    b) even IF IF IF it were possible to know, do people go out and read greek lyric poetry for the music that did accompany it?
    
    Like today: music with lyrics is bought and listened to for the music, dylan not excepted.

      a. We have fragments only.
      
      b. Greeks sang their poems. When I read Greek poetry, I'm aware that I'm getting only part of what the ancient Greeks experienced.
