In this episode of The Musical Archeologist, Craig Dabelstein explores one of Hermann Eichborn's most wonderfully specific examples of musical regulation: the old wedding rules of Lübeck, where even music at a feast could be controlled by civic authority.

At certain weddings, the "great ensemble" was permitted to play during the meal only once — during the roast course. It sounds comic, but behind the rule is a serious forgotten idea: music was not merely entertainment. It was a public display of rank, wealth, order, and social meaning.

This episode asks why a city would regulate wedding music, what instruments and musicians represented in civic life, and how something as ordinary as a feast could reveal a whole society's anxieties about status and display.
