"The Lutheran theologian and sinologist Andreas Müller (1630-1694) added to the transcription of the Nestorian stele's text made by the Jesuit Athanasius Kircher ('China illustrata') a musical notation, in order to make the pronunciation of Chinese tones easier for the European reader, and composed it as a hymn, which was published in 1672 with the title 'Monumenti sinici'."--See note in Ad Dudink & Nicolas Standaert, Chinese Christian Texts Database (CCT-Database).
