Hmmmm........

Beethoven might be a worthy addition....

[H]

LOL!
Very funny, guys.

Yeah, Beethoven would definetely be a worthy addition. But then again, so would Wagner, etc.

But now, seriously, who are the Gods?!?!?! [6]
I need this info for a Play. The research I´ve done leads me to myriads of pages with wonderful pictures and stories, but I just want the names.

are there gods of music at all? I know the Greek muse, Terpsichore. Then there's Pan with his panpipes, who often accompanies Bacchus on his drunken forays. In Indian mythology, as far as I know the nearest to a god of music is Krishna.

That's all I know, hope it helps a bit at least ...

Yeap. This is definitely getting very close.



Ok, Elvis lovers. Thank you for further shared knowledge.

God is dead anyway.

unfortunately in german i tumbled across this (paragraph 2. Chelys):
http://www.musikarchaeologie.de/altgriechische_musikinstrumente.html
the Chelys (lyre) was invented by Hermes, later donated to his brother Apollon, who was from now on _the_ god of music ... hermes then invented the Syrinx (pan-flute) for himself as replacement
