摘要：In 1997, Professor Robert M. Stevenson wrote an article entitled "Pedro Cerone (1566-1625): Impostor or Defender of the Faith." Professor Stevenson ends his provocative article, which includes a brilliant analysis of the reception history of El Melopeo y Maestro (Naples, 1613) as well as a comprehensive biography of its author, with an invitation to further research on various aspects of El Melopeo . In response to this invitation, the present article seeks to further our understanding of this frequently misunderstood treatise. I have often asked myself this essential question: if Cerone had never written El Melopeo or if every copy of this treatise had been lost, would our understanding of the music and theory of the 16 th century be different? I think the answer is obvious.
