Abstract
Kleefeld references an early mention of the triangle found in the libretto, "Bon vivant" by Richard Keiser, also known as "Leipziger Messe". Kleefeld goes on to say of the triangle, "... these rhythm-enhancing percussion instruments were well known and used back then. In particular, they may have worked diligently at the numerous ballets and were probably beaten by the dancers on the stage."
