So now we have quantitative proof that the Ancient Greeks' views on
music were correct.

Music is not an art but a science, with well defined laws that enable
the musician to induce specific effects and emotions in the listener.

Refer to:
On Music in Three Books, by Aristides Quintilianus
Translation, with Introduction, Commentary, and Annotations by Thomas J
Mathiesen
