 The source examines how ancient Greek and Roman physical training relied heavily on music, establishing a practice still common today. It explains that figures like Plato and Aristotle considered music and gymnastics the twin pillars of education, essential for shaping a virtuous body and soul, a concept known as kalokagathia. The episode details the use of specific instruments, particularly the aulos (a double-reeded wind instrument), for pacing activities, synchronizing group drills, and setting the tempo for everything from wrestling to war dances like the pyrrhic. Furthermore, the episode describes how music extended beyond the gymnasium to include Roman military marches and the spectacle of gladiatorial training and fights.
