Art/Literary - Music / Music | | Spanish term or phrase: frase | If anyone could help with the bit between inverted commas I'd be really grateful.
Junto a la lengua, llegaba la música europea an un momento de alta elaboración intelectual y propiamente artística, "iniciándose también la conquista definitiva de sus valores instrumentales".

Any ideas? |
