"Born in tenuous circumstances Toscanello preface Aaron seems to have been largely self-taught; this may be the reason for his less systematic approach and questionable statements especially in his first treatise but also for his valuable insights into contemporary practice: from his first treatise onwards he promises to divulge 'many of the secret chambers of this art never heretofore revealed'. He is especially informative on counterpoint and compositional process distinguishing older and newer procedures the modal system in polyphonic music and the application of musica ficta. He is one of the first theorists to discuss mean-tone temperament. His Toscanello among the earliest vernacular music treatises was highly successful and ran to four editions." Bonnie J. Blackburn in Grove Music Online First published in 1523 "Toscanello . is probably the best general treatise of its generation invaluable for its clever and progressive discussions of musical practice particularly counterpoint. . Aron wrote extensively about practice scarcely ever touching on speculative theory. His ideas are derived from earlier writers notably Tinctoris Gaffurius and Spataro but he frequently extended or modified traditions." TNG 6 Vol. 1. pp. 2-3. "Aron's published works on musical theory comprise the Libri III de institutione harmonica 1516 the Trattato della natura e cognizione di tutti gli toni di canto figurato 1525 the Lucidario in musica 1545 and the Compendiolo di molti dubbi without date. His chief writing however is the Toscanello in musica 1523 and four later editions which contains the best exposition of contrapuntal rules to be found before Zarlino. Aron is the first theorist to recognize the practice of composing all voices of a composition simultaneously." Strunk: Source Readings in Music History p. 205 The full-page woodcut of Aron instructing his pupils with musical instruments in the foreground represents a significant record of the history of the student/teacher relationship of the period. See Kinsky: A History of Music in Pictures p. 109 no. 2. An important work and a fine example of a very early treatise in the vernacular.
