Was it the classical period...?
   Music was never fully written out as it is today.
   You were given the basic melody and the chord structure...  Somewhere
   along the line things were "dumbed down"...

       The essence of this music, however, is that we hear the "stories",
       learn them, make them our own and reproduce them, not verbatim,
     but
       slightly differently as mood and memory serves. They have to
     become
       part of us; not something external interpreted from marks on a
     page.
       Once they are inside us it is very natural to share them with
     others.

          But remembering the words of a speech, writing them down
     verbatim,
          then being unable to remember them again without reading the
       transcript
          is plain weird....
