Ernest G. McClain

Ernest Glenn McClain (August 6, 1918 Massillon, Ohio - April 25, 2014 Washington, DC) was professor emeritus of music at Brooklyn College. McClain is known for his efforts to establish the ancient mathematical discipline of music as the means to unlock the deepest meaning of history's great religious and philosophical texts. His writings offer a musical-mathematical explanation of crucial passages in texts of world literature, including the Bible, the Rig Veda, the Egyptian Book of the Dead, and Plato. All of these passages deal with numbers that he claimed had either been ignored or misinterpreted throughout the centuries. McClain's explanation is based on the meanings of these numbers within the context of the quadrivium, the four ancient mathematical disciplines of arithmetic, music, geometry and astronomy. His discovery of identical or similar numbers and parallel mathematical constructs in Sumer, Egypt, Babylon, Palestine and Greece, suggests the historical continuity of a common spiritual tradition linking the microcosm of the soul to the macrocosm of the universe. His work provides much of the missing mathematical detail for what scholars often call the Music of the Spheres.〔.〕〔 (reprint of paper delivered to American Musicological Society, Denver, Colorado, November 1980).〕〔.〕
==Life==

A 1936 graduate of Washington High School, Ohio, McClain studied at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, where he graduated in 1940 with a degree in Music Education. After graduation, he worked in the Wadsworth, Ohio school district, but soon joined the Air Corps for World War II, where he became a lieutenant and was stationed in New Guinea and the Philippines. On his return from the war, he studied for a Master's degree in Music Education (1947) from Northwestern University, then took music instructor positions at Denison University in Granville, Ohio and the University of Hawaii. After receiving a doctorate in Music Education from Teachers College, Columbia University, he joined the Music Faculty of Brooklyn College (part of the City University of New York) in 1951, where he taught until his retirement in 1982.
