At first he sustained himself by teaching or tutoring math and music, and occasionally by selling his compositions. He started corresponding with a number of composers and musicians to exchange ideas about music. These discussions, as well as explorations of non-Etalocian musical traditions, would inspire him to further develop the music theory at that time. These ideas were distilled into a treatise that was published in fT 2275. | ||
In fT 2280, an academic took notice of Þwhgad's work on music theory and invited him to serve in the University of Vahgo as a professor of music. He accepted the offer and would continue to teach there for 20 years. Among his students were several notable "modern era" Fyxámian composers and popular musicians. | In fT 2280, an academic took notice of Þwhgad's work on music theory and invited him to serve in the University of Vahgo as a professor of music.
