Here is an original and exciting take a look at the fascinating world of sound and music. Excellent real-life photographs of instruments ranging from zithers and panpipes to electric guitars and synthesizers offer a unique “eyewitness” view of ancient and latest music. See how strings vibrate to make a remark sound, how an invisible “column” of air sounds a pipe, which instrument resembles a peacock, and how sousaphone players wear their instruments. Learn who invented crucial new key system, the best way to master the bagpipes, why pipe organs have “ears” and “mouths”, and why French horns are “doubled up”. Discover how a vegetable gourd charms snakes, why tangled fingers led to the invention of the piano, why spiders add a “buzz” to xylophones, where reindeer toe-bones were used as whistles, and much, a lot more!
