[Nero Claudius]

Could you point me to your sources? I'm curious to read them and see what they say.

[Nero Claudius]

If I remember correctly the Romans inherited much of their art, architecture, mythology, and early warfare from the Greeks. Why would the Romans not have inherited some of the music of the Greeks?

[Jow45metal]

Ancient Greek music is much more known and is way more complex and appreciable than roman music.

[Max Dzikowski]

The thuth is Da Vinci was VERY skilled musician (they say). He was making musical instruments and even invented one.

[NerdyNerdMajor]

Well not all great artists are good with music, (I don't think Da Vinci ever wrote a song) but we do know that Romans had access to all musical styles from the far North of England to the Euphrates so no matter what their lost music sounded like they would not have suffered from a lack of it.

[lichtbroeder]

Since we know little of ancient Roman music, how can anyone say that it was "terrible"? We do know that Roman art and architecture were wonderful, and Europeans didn't rediscover how to equal these until the Renaissance. The notion of a people with great art and bad music makes no sense. I'll give the ancient Romans benefit of the doubt.
