Exegesis
The first and third clauses share the subject phōnē {φωνὴ | phōnḗ} “sound,” each followed by a series of genitives (kitharōdōn, mousikōn, aulētōn, salpistōn {κιθαρῳδῶν, μουσικῶν, αὐλητῶν, σαλπιστῶν | kitharōdōn, mousikōn, aulētōn, salpistōn}) or by the single genitive mylou {μύλου | mylou} “of a mill,” which specify the type of sound that is disappearing.
In context — Revelation 18:22
And the sound of harpists and musicians, of flutists and trumpeters, shall never be heard in you any longer; and every craftsman of every trade shall never be found in you any longer; and the sound of a mill shall never be heard in you any longer.
