My afternoon work listening was Blood, Sweat & Tears.

Okay, happiness is done.

The wall on which the prophets wrote
Is cracking at the seams
Upon the instruments of death
The sunlight brightly gleams
When every man is torn apart
With nightmares and with dreams
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
When silence drowns the screams
Confusion will be my epitaph
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back and laugh
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying
Yes, I fear tomorrow I'll be crying
Yes, I fear tomorrow I'll be crying
Between the iron gates of fate
The seeds of time were sown
And watered by the deeds of those
Who know and who are known
Knowledge is a deadly friend
If no one sets the rules
The fate of all mankind I see
Is in the hands of fools
The wall on which the prophets wrote
Is cracking at the seams
Upon the instruments of death
The sunlight brightly gleams
When every man is torn apart
With nightmares and with dreams
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
When silence drowns the screams?
Confusion will be my epitaph
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back and laugh
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying
Yes, I fear tomorrow I'll be crying
Yes, I fear tomorrow I'll be crying
Crying

Talk about SCA!!!
I loved the 'proto-trombone' - what's it actually called?
And what are those reeded instruments? Surely not Oboes - (no valves, just finger holes) but maybe?
I take it that thing on screen right is a drum? (JK)

My question is - Who was the first guy to blow through a hollow stick, make a sound, and amaze the shit out of everyone standing around?

The brass instrument is a slide trumpet, which is a predecessor of the sackbut. The sackbut eventually became the modern trombone. In the description for the video it is called by its French name trompette à coulisse.
I once tripped over a sackbut (in its case). This happens when you have a house full of tubas, a bass trombone, trumpets, violins, and lots of different-sized recorders. Every so often, a borrowed sackbut would show up. I loved the name because I was an elementary kid and thought it sounded funny (I may still do because I'm childish).
The 2 smaller read instruments are shawms (chalemie). They are similar to the modern oboe.
The drum is a drum, it is similar to the modern. um, drum.
The larger wooden instrument is a bombard (bombarde). It is also a reed instrument like the shawm though more powerful (close to a trumpet) and has some attachment to the reed styles in bagpipes.
It is well known as a type of of stop in an organ, usually in the lower pitched ranks and the names is rather descriptive.
It is in the low pitches of this short
The bombards join other obnoxiously loud trumpets on this one. I love it. Forget your loud metal bands, this is how you blow a house down.

We didn't cover that in my college music history classes. It's probably because nobody knows. Our knowledge of certain musical things way back in early early antiquity is extremely non-existent.
What early Greek music sounded like uses a great deal of conjecture since we have what appears to be notation but no context. It is a best-guess scenario.

Here is another one from the same group. It has a shawm, what I think is a buisine, and a percussionist with wood and bells. The buisine does not look much different from a Roman Tuba, which would make sense.

My vote would go towards some Australian about 40 or 50 thousand years ago.
But I suppose a case could be made that it was an African before that.

While I would think that might be the beginnings of your modern brass, flutes may well have been found accidentally by blowing through a tube with a notch on it (i.e. the fipple on things like recorders) or blowing across the opening like you can do with a straw and get a note (i.e. the concept of a modern flute).
Reeds may have been from things like grass, and somebody having fun decided to see what would happen if you added something to help make it louder and fuller, i.e., the resonator tube.

Don't move fast or you'll break that long trumpet (buisine). It will fold over between the joining sections. The length gave it the bass resonance. I did something similar in a pair of speakers I built with folded/looped PVC pipe in a ported box.northland10 wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2024 10:45 am Here is another one from the same group.

We don't know our own ancient history, but we do know that for whatever reason, music is an important part of being human. When we finally reach the stars, if we ever do, our music will be something we can really be proud of.
