Lasus of Hermione
Lasus of Hermione (Greek: Λάσος ὁ Ἑρμιονεύς) was a Greek lyric poet of the 6th century BC from the city of Hermione in the Argolid. He is known to have been active at Athens under the reign of the Peisistratids. Pseudo-Plutarch's De Musica credits him with innovations in the dithyramb hymn. With the aid of various changes in music and rhythm, he developed the dithyramb form into an artistically constructed choral song, with an accompaniment of several flutes. Read more on Wikipedia
