| Abstract | The article explores the improvisations in the practices of cabala, music and alchemy. It examines the connection between magic, alchemy and cabala and their implications for theosophy according to Paracelsian doctor Heinrich Khunrath. It also analyzes the musical composition and harmony of alchemical songs. It discusses the significance of an engraving by Khunrath that features harp, cittern, lute and lyre to the Pythagorean. |
