im not completely sure!. but without doing any research and just going by best guess!. i think that it probably completely originated with Nietzsche!. i've never heard of that before!. and i've read The Apology, i didnt see anything like that in there either!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, because musical instruments had not been invented yet!. Music first got it's start when Catholic Priests began singing Gregorian Chants, about 400 A!.D!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

hopeful imagination!.!.I am sure god had better things to do!.!.specifically in those early days!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
